Re: [LM_NET] Gen: Follett Titlewave

I am presuming that this is because Titlewave doesn't have a keyword search option. 
Suppose you wanted to find a book that had the word "eclipse" in the title but you 
couldn't remember the whole title. In that case you would be glad for this feature. 
Also, I did a search under title for "eclipse" and found that there were about 8 
titles listed by that specific name. You're going to get that kind of a list either 
way. I can't say that I have been bothered by scrolling through the list to find 
the one I want.
