[!quote|#5fb236] Highlight The term ‘simple/basic search’ means a search by any word or phrase from any one bibliographic field of OPAC and ‘advanced/ expert/complex search’ means searching by more than one field of the bibliographic elements of OPAC record.

A good balanced approach to let people who are not great with tech still use it while keeping advanced features for people who can work their way around technology.
