In the title search, I have a need to find books with say a Goodreads Id in the Identifiers field.

Currently I can find those with ANY identifier: "Identifiers:true"
But I've tried Identifiers:"Goodreads" etc, and this doesn't work.

I note that in the metadata bulk update screen, when you select Identifiers as the search field, you get a new combi: Identifier Type. Presumably there is a way to incorporate this into the Search expression, but I cannot guess what it is.

Anyone know?

Thanks
