I admit it, I'm lazy.  I love the entire bookshelf search feature. 
However,
more and more books are available only in PDF format.  I'm unhappy 
(stronger
words would need to censored) that I cannot search an entire extended
bookshelf on my on PC.  Several years ago, I complained to IBM about the
lack of a extended bookshelf search and that more and more books where
available only in PDF format.

I use Adobe Reader. It has a "find" function that works within a document. 
It also has a "SEARCH" feature that acts on a directory. I make large use 
of search when I need to know something that I know is not in an index.

And, yes, I actually do download the whole pdf list to my computer. It 
comes in very handy when I am on a flight, or otherwise do not have 
Internet access and am trying to figure out how to do something.
