Bug: 4.1 Beta 11: Library search doesn't find text in citation information

(Need a library that includes the six-volume Pressure Points series to see this. It includes Dangers, Toils & Snares; Measuring Up; Standing Fast; The Time Crunch; A Voice in the Wilderness; Who's In Charge?)

Open Library

In the Find box type "pressure points"

Only three volumes are found. These three (Dangers, Measuring, Time Crunch) happen to be ones which mention in their descriptive text that they are such-and-such volume of Mastering Ministry's Pressure Points series. The other three do not mention that but they do mention "Mastering ministry's pressure points" in their bibliographic citation info. Thus they should be found.

It appears that Logos is not looking in the citation info for matches with what is typed in the Find box. Seems to me that it should.

Then again, perhaps if all of these had their series title info in the series metadata it would be a moot point. But still, it would be helpful for finding and reporting missing metadata like this if the Find box would find things based on citation info. Maybe it should be enabled in a debug version only if it would slow the release version down any.

    I've submitted your suggestions for review. Thanks.

    Update:  All six resources appear in Library with 'pressure points' filter now, and include the "Mastering Ministry's Pressure Points" Series metadata.
