The simplest way would be to try something like this:
var mySearch = new google.search.WebSearch;
mySearch.setSiteRestriction('http://www.colonie.org/library/digitalLibrary/materials');
searchControl.addSearcher(mySearch);
That said, you will very likely find that a searcher set up this way will not
return the results you expect. The API does not handle being restricted to a
given domain or url all that well. Fortunately, though, there is a workaround.
I would suggest setting up a custom search engine which is restricted to your
site, and then replacing the url in the .setSiteRestriction call above with the
CSE's id.
