+====== How to: Search for Data Outside RIMMF ======
+===== Quick Steps =====
+==== Search ====
+You can search for data outside RIMMF from anywhere in RIMMF (while you are in a record, in a template, or at the main menu).
+  * Open the search menu:
+    * See [[details:searchandretrieval#invoking_the_interface|Invoking the Search Interface]] for details.
+  * Enter a heading or other words to search
+    * If a term is already showing in the Terms box, delete it
+    * Type your [[details:searchandretrieval#terms|search term]] in the Terms box
+  * Choose your [[details:searchandretrieval#search_source|Search Source]]
+  * Adjust the [[details:searchandretrieval#search_options|Search Options]] if necessary
+  * Click the <Search> button; or Hit <Enter>
+  If the search 'timesout' (404 Request aborted on timeout)
+    then it means the source server is busy,
+    try again.
+==== View MARC ====
+To [[details:searchandretrieval#view_marc|view a MARC record]] before importing it:
+  * Select the heading for the record you wish to view and click the <View Marc> button; or
+  * Double-click on the heading for the record
+==== Import ====
+If you decide to [[details:searchandretrieval#import|import a MARC record]] that you have found, into RIMMF:
+    * Click <Import>
+    * View the record
+    * Click <Add record>
+==== Edit ====
+One you have imported and added the converted record to your RIMMF database, you can edit it in RIMMF, and link to and from it, as usual.
