The point of this is that, from our librarians perspective, without a better search experience, Koha is "broken".
Those are their words, not mine. Here's the thing: when I run a search in Koha, I do get back lots of results from our catalog that are highly relevant to the search terms. But these are exact title matches, and they come back with "Not found".
How can I improve this?
How do you re-index Zebra? Are your cron jobs working properly and regularly? Do you do a complete re-index (manually) from time to time? As an aside, we have found that using the "library catalogue" search (not 'title', nor 'author') and just putting in a couple of keywords from the title and the author's surname works remarkably well...
