Titles List
A Titles List shows results from all
searches except for Subject, Author, and Keyword; or
when the search results in a single catalog record.
A Titles List also displays as a result of selecting
and displaying a heading with one or more titles from the Headings
List display.
Each row of the display includes a brief description for a single title
in the Handbook of Latin American Studies Online Catalog (HLAS Web). While
most searches display "author," "titles" and "date" of
the work, the information in a Titles List may vary depending on the
search method used.
Upper Section
The upper section of the Titles List consists of a table
containing five columns of data for each title, and a block with
location information for the Library of Congress and the call number.
In addition, there are buttons allowing you to retain selections
from the screen of hits, as you move to subsequent pages in the
search results.
Parts of this display:
- Previous and Next icons display search results
before and after the current screen full.
