Anchored subject phrase searching - Anchored subject phrase searching ('su='query') is returning 0 results.
- However, keyword subject searches such as 'su:query' and unanchored phrase searches such as 'su:'query'' do work. If the subject phrase is combined with a limiter (for example: su= "civil war" and dt= "bks"), the search will also work.

Phrase searching using quotations - Phrase searching in FirstSearch by entering the phrase in quotations ("query") using the Keyword search field is returning 0 results.
- The current workaround to resolve this is by adding the OAIstr database in your FirstSearch configuration. This setting can be updated in your FirstSearch Administrative Module.
