The problem here is our patron searches are not weighted. We simply gather all patrons that match the search criteria and sort them by firstname and lastname. We need to do weighted searching. We could do something like use Elastic for indexing and searching patron data, or we could do something like https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6496866/best-way-to-do-a-weighted-search-over-multiple-fields-in-mysql |
