In the Editor Application, there are two ways of finding an element:
- searching for it on the basis of its bibliographic description or administrative notes or
- searching for it on the basis of its identifier.
As regards searching for an element on the basis of its bibliographic description or administrative notes, there are two search options. Bibliographic descriptions are browsed in the same way as dLibra web pages in the general search. One can also browse administrative notes. To access both options, the user should open the search window by selecting the “Find” item from the “Edition” menu.
To search for an element on the basis of its identifier, the user should select the “Go to...” position from the “Edition” menu, select the type of the element to be found (for example, a directory), and enter the identifier of the element. If the element exists, it will be displayed and selected on the element list. That search is also available from the toolbar in the Editor Application where the user can choose the type of the element and enter the identifier (the search is started up by pressing the “Enter” key).
