By default if you don't set filters, it will search all columns and return books that contains the search string, for example:
Here we search for 'hello':
And if we want to search someone's books, .e.g David, we could set column filters to Author and type David in search bar:
What if we want to search Bender's all books that format is djvu? Just set the format filter too:
Also, you can select multi formats, so you can search Bender's both djvu and pdf books:
Maybe you have noticed there's a weird num sequences, in fact this is used for decided how much books is quried and returned, as you see, there is 25, 50, and 100, don't recommend to set this to 100, although it supports, you could be blocked as you send too much requests to libgen.
