The site search tab on the blue nav bar searches all libraries by default. This often returns results that are not relevant to what the user is looking for. The filter on the right will let you search by page/database/exhibition/person, but not filter to specific libraries. A filter to /business /health, etc would more likely return results a user is expecting.

When individuals search the site, they get everything instead of something relevant to their search. (e.g. a search for faculty is a big gibberish of results. Sure, they should use the drop down and find things that way, but for folks who use site search, this is more macro than they expect

One potential issue I see with this is that a lot of the content is not within a specific library. Anything that's in tools/ or archives/ or staff/... will not show up if it's filtered to just what's under a specific library. However.
So right now the facets come from https://dev.libraries.emory.edu/admin/config/search/facets, under which you can find search_api:views_page__main_libraries_search__main_search which only includes the content_type facet, which is what produces the person, page, exhibit, etc., in the facet results because they are specifically defined content types. We can add a facet, but getting it to pick either the location of a result (not defined on most pages, based on looking at the content list) or grab something out of the url might be trickier.
