| Fielded Search HelpWhat is it?Scran Records are catalogued using information in seven fields: what, where, who, when, subject, title and Project. The Fielded Search allows you to look for words within particular fields. The Fielded Search also allows you to choose how your search results are sorted and displayed, and choose which types of media you want to search for.
