4.2 Search Results Page
When searching all your content, Kindle looks in the reading materials you have on your Kindle and
the metadata (like title and author) of the materials you have in Archived Items. This includes pur-
chased items, personal documents, and annotations that you have created.
The example below shows a typical Search Results page.
The screen shows the titles of the items that contain your search term and indicates how many
times the term occurs. The list is ordered by the number of occurrences of the search term in each
item. If the term appears in a title of an archived item, then that item is listed first and does not
include the number of occurrences.
Use the Next Page and Previous Page buttons if there are more results than fit on the
current page.

To see the results for one of the items listed:

2. Press the 5-way to view the matches.
3. A page appears showing all instances of the search term in that particular title. Each
occurrence lists its location number and is shown in context so you can see how the
search term is used.
