Search a Collection temporarily disabled?
I used to be able to "search a collection" like the 1930 census records, but now the screen that used to go to the search parameters does not come up. And there seems to be nothing I can click on to make it go there. Any tips? Is it me, or is it you?

Thanks to all for your suggestions! Turns out the problem was on my end. I just needed to clear out all the cookies and stuff that had accumulated on my computer and now the Search screen loads as it should!

Sent a private message to the patron, suggesting another method to search.

It's still there, unchanged, for me:

What exactly are you seeing or not seeing?

Thankfully, the new Search screen has disappeared from view (for me) today. Unfortunately, this means I cannot post a screenshot to illustrate what I believe to be your problem. There is still the option to sort by Collection, but the "link" appears at a different position in the new version of the Search page, then the options (of choosing from the collections available to search for the source you wish to find) now appear on the right hand side of the page, instead of the left.
I'm sure the new version of the Search page(s) will reappear for me later today, but (as reported by others) this seems to be an unnecessary change that is causing users lots of problems and certainly slowed down my work yesterday, when I saw it for the first time.
