As an example entering “Parrots” in the title will return all records where parrots occurs in either the title or the subtitle of an entry.

Entering “Australian Parrots” in the title will return all records where the words parrots and Australian occurs in either the title or the subtitle of an entry. Checking the “OR” option will return all entries where either word occurs.
