Bad Search function
Many times I have searched the name of a book and the first options that pop up are not the name of the book. Many times I can’t find the book until I search for the author.
For example I searched “horse” which is a very popular book written by the very popular author Geraldine Brooks.
The first option shown was “Nice Horse”. The simple title “Horse” did not appear on the list at all. That should be the first on the list!
Further searching using the authors name discovered there are 5 books of this title in the Inner West Library collection, 2 of which are available.
