In the library catalog you can search for books in multiple ways, including using a keyword, an author, a subject, and a title. All of these will produce different results in a library’s catalog. A keyword search will give you results from any material in the catalog that mentions the word or phrase you are searching. So if you search medieval history, you may get results with that phrase in the title, series, table of contents, summary, etc. This means it searches very broadly and you get lots of results (that may or may not be relevant)
Keep your search terms very general.
Do your search different ways for different results.
