Wiki Markup*Howto: Use DSpace Discovery*
The Discovery Module enables your repository to have faceted searching.
Thus a user can filter what they are looking for by grouping entries into a facet, and drill down to find the content they are interested in. 
So instead of user searching: \ [ wetland + "dc.author=Mitsch, William J" + dc.subject="water quality" \ ], they can instead do their initial search, \ [ wetland \ ], and then filter the results by attributes. !worddava7d46df6db45f7ce78511e9f8e78b098.png|height=855,width=804!

A website like Amazon, might do this to help you select a digital camera. You can reduce the results by price range, features, megapixels, manufacturer, etc.
The further the DSpace Discovery module is developed, the more useful that browsing can be to the researcher looking for items in your collections.
