Hi Yamil:

bib_level comes from MARC leader[07] "bibliographic level" attribute:
http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bdleader.html

For the case of Journal Title, it simply appends "bib_level=s" to the
backend search to limit results to records that have that leader[07]
value set to "s" for "serial".

Dan,

Thanks you very much for the explanation, I now completely understand and can explain it to my co-workers. Let me know if you, or anybody else, have issues with my proposed (updated) documentation text...

"Journal Title—finds the terms you enter in the title of a serial bib record"

Thanks again,
Yamil
