Why don't I get newspaper articles in my results when I filter to Newspapers or eNewspapers?

Symptom

You get no results when you use the Format facet to filter down result sets to Newspaper or eNewspapers

Applies to
  • WorldCat Discovery
Resolution

The Newspaper and eNewspaper format facet is used to limit results to only newspaper title records, not the articles in the newspaper. For example, a search for "Washington" would bring up the "Washington Post", but not stories about the state of Washington. To get newspaper articles, filter with the "Articles" format facet instead.
