Search for libraries using keywords

On the AODocs homepage, enter part or all of the name of a library in the Search field.

The list of libraries displayed is filtered according to the text you entered. The search is case insensitive and matches partial keywords. The result list is updated immediately as you type your keywords.

Which libraries are shown in the list of results?

For readers, contributors and library administrators, the results show the libraries to which they have access and which don't have restricted visibility for the type of user – learn more: Restrict the visibility of your library. For example, contributors can see all libraries in which they have write access, except those in which the visibility is set to Hidden from readers and contributors.

For super administrators, the results show all the libraries in the domain.

Learn more about how super administrators can filter the display to show only their libraries.

Select libraries for display using labels

Libraries can be tagged with labels, which allow you to select libraries for display on your homepage.

Super administrators: filter the display to show only your libraries

As a super administrator, all the libraries in your domain are shown on the library homepage. You may want to filter the display to show only the libraries in which you are defined as reader, contributor or library administrator. 

On the library homepage, activate the switch See only my libraries.

Important:
– When this switch is off (default), all libraries in your domain are displayed.
– When this switch is on, all libraries in which you are defined as reader, contributor or library administrator are displayed, except those in which the visibility is restricted for the type of user you're defined as in the library.
For example, if you're a reader in a library in which the visibility is defined as Hidden from readers, you can see the library when the switch is off, but you can't see it when the switch is on.
