Re: [VuFind-General] What is 'keyword' as opposed to 'all fields'

[Tod O. <to...@uc...>]

Just to flesh out possibilities, it would be possible for a site to have an "All Fields" search that really is all of the text fields, but promote a "Keywords" search that would exclude some of the fields that the site considers noisy. I've certainly been in conversations about whether certain fields are really useful in a general keyword context and whether to have different flavors of general keyword.

You probably want to do just what Demian suggests and not make it any more complicated, it's just that there are additional possible explanations for the Wake County configuration.

This may be the wrong place to ask.

I have librarians that just can’t stand the lack of the choice of ‘keyword’ in the search drop down.

They note sites like this:

https://catalog.wakegov.com/Union/Search?type=Keyword&lookfor=quammen

That have ‘all fields’, And ‘keyword’

Anyone familiar with this that could explain what’s different?
