In the Search Field we put Marilyn Monroe. Under Limit Your Results check the Full Text box (in this example we want only the documents that are available in full text) and Primary Source Documents box.
Click Search . Your search results are displayed. To print, e-mail or save several search results, you should add them
to the folder.
We get one entry with the name Marilyn Monroe, avalable in full text in HTML format (web page).
It's a poem written by Marilyn Monroe (priamry source). You can print it out, save it, or e-mail it.
