Need help using Ctrl+F Search function with Ebooks on Straighterline Exams

[Limeyswife]

Hi Everyone,

I'm new here so I thought I'd give a brief introduction! I'm a homeschooling mama of 4. My oldest is 15 and has so far accumulated 4 credits from our local community college (Spanish 1) and 6 credits from Straighterline (USHist1 and American Gov.) I am actually taking the Straighterline courses as well, working my way towards a degree along with my daughter! Such fun!

Anyway...before I pose my question I would like to say that I've spent the last two days reading through hundreds of posts and have gathered a ton of great info. I'm so grateful that I found this site. However, I haven't been able to find specific tips and tricks for using the search feature in the bookshelf. I have tried using ctrl+F and searching for specific terms, even single words that are on my test questions and the search returns zero results in most cases. For instance, several of the questions on my US History II test are regarding Roosevelt...however the only results that come up in my book search using the term "roosevelt" are from a infographic in the appendix. WHAT THE HECK am I doing wrong??? Please help!

Thanks in advance,
Jennipher
