Advanced Search now eliminates formats listed as exceptions, non-circulating or items in Notes fields.  In addition, Advanced Search for Group Affiliation searches for members of a specific OCLC Group Symbol or Group Name when the search text is enclosed in quotation marks (" ").  OCLC testing and training symbols are eliminated from the search results.

Please see the OCLC Policies Directory web site for more information, or see the quick reference entitled OCLC Policies Directory Quick Reference.
