Thank you for all the prompt and helpful replies. The most precise and
complete magic incantation came from Larry Dixon of the Library of

Right, Mike. There is a long and rich history of the debate between loose

I'm not sure it's a _big_ mess, though, at least for metasearching.
I wasn't thinking specifically about metasearch, but rather, bad decisions
getting replicated and you end up with an installed base of bad
implementations. The best illustration
HTML works out pretty well. If our biggest failures were 'failures' like
HTML, we'd be doing pretty well.

What are the ways to accomplish exact title searches
Like so many library standards, z30.50 is a syntax and a set of rough
guidelines. You have no idea what's actually happening on the other end,
because it's not specified, and you just have to either find someone you can
ask at the target machine or reverse engineer it.

I think in order to accomplish this you'd have to send a completeness
or truncation attribute:
@attr 1=4 6=3 foo bar # search for 'foo bar' as the complete field
@attr 1=4 6=2 foo bar # search for 'foo bar' as the complete subfield
@attr 1=4 5=100 foo bar # do not truncate - although this is
16 matches
