Searching through the Library to find the perfect Article, Image, or File

 

can be done several ways. 

 

Here, we will show you various "searching" methods, and you can choose

 

which one will be your favorite.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Library Page

 

 

 

 

There are several ways to Search for a particular Article, Image, or File

 

Let's start with the Search tool located in the upper right of the toolbar.

 

     

        • Use Search to enter part of the letters, numbers, or words that are in the file's title.  Enter the words in the Search bar,  and click Search 

        •  You can, also, search for the file by entering Keywords in the Search bar, if  they were previously entered when you first stored the file. The Library will show a list of titles for you to select. 

        • Double click on the title of the file you want, and click Search  .  The Library will bring up the selected file. 

 

        •  If you need to check and see if this is the right image or file, you can click on its title which will bring up a Preview screen, seen below.  To exit the Preview screen, click  the Close Preview   button.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

        •  You can also, roll your cursor over a file's title to see a "Thumbnail" picture of the file.

 

        •  Another way to Search for a file is using ShowThe Show dropdown shows a list of all the different types of files stored.  This is a useful tool to 

                           narrow a Search rather than go through the entire Library's contents.  Click on Show and the dropdown shown below will appear.  Choose a

                           subject and the Library will show only those files that meet the chosen category.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

        • You can look for the file by using the View's  dropdown to choose either Listing or Thumbnails.  Thumbnails will show a small picture of each image.  Double click on the Thumbnail  to see a Preview of the image, see the desert scene above.  Click on Close Preview to exit the Preview screen.  To select the file, click on the picture.  Then go to the bottom of the Library screen and click Select.  

 

 

 

                                                                                                                                                                                                         

 

 

 

                                                                                                                                                   

 

 

 

 

 

        • Using the actual title of Created Date will help you find a particular file, too.  If you know the date when the file was stored, click on the title Created

                         Date.  The Library will group the images by the dates they were stored, from the earliest date to the latest date.  Click again, and the Library will

                         group the files from the most recent date to the oldest date.  It is a quick and easy way to search for a recently stored file.  See Created Date

                         highlighted below.

 

 

                                                                      

Once you have found the appropriate Article, Image, or file.  Click in the gray box next to its name.  See up arrow.

 

 

                                                                                                         

Then go down to the bottom of the Library page, and click Select.
