Image search
Hello, Im trying to look for a specific image from Lviv Historical Archive Ukraine. It is in Nobility Lineage Books group, creator - Count Lyantskoronsky's estate. But the problem is I got more than 5000 files in search image results and there is no a way to filter them by volume or browse more than 4000 total. I couldnt narrow results down because they are made in the same area and the rest info is the same. here is a link:
What should I do? Thanks

Did you try using "Refine Search" to add a place, date etc.?

Maile, the problem is a combination of two things. One, the cataloging data used by the Images section is, um, woefully inadequate: almost all of the available fields are completely identical for this collection. And two, almost none of the fields that are actually different -- such as volume number, as Maksym mentioned -- are available on the Refine Search pane. In other words, yes, you can refine the search -- by all sorts of parameters that are exactly the same on all of the entries. And you can't even get it to sort by something other than image group number.
Pretty much the only thing you can add to the search is a date -- if you know it.

Sorry. My second image did not go through. I found another location on the bottom of page 1.

Thank you Maile L and Julia Szent-Györgyi for your answers. I finally found the way to find particular volume file for this collection. All I needed to do was in advance image search to type in a keyword field a volume number in specific format like "181-1-1363" and that was it.
