About display of search results
- By default, the search results are displayed in chronological order registered on the portal. The display order may be changed to order according to “Relevance” (order of relevance to the search criteria), “Title (ascending/descending order),” or “Year (ascending/descending order).” In the case of Year (ascending order), items without a Year are displayed at the top.
- Twenty items are displayed at a time. The setting can be changed to 50, 100, or 200.
- Click the Title to shift to the item details.
- By pressing the “List” or “Thumbnail” button, the display method of the search results may be switched between “List Format” and “Thumbnail Format” (grid format).

- Select a format and click the “Export” button to perform export.
- Only the items displayed on the screen are exported (not all the search results). If you wish to export all the items at once, switch the number of items displayed to the maximum.
