The Office of Web Communications also allows orgainzations to create a 'Google Search Appliance Collection'. This Collection is a list of the domains and paths you want to search. You maintain the list using an administrator interface that lets you add and remove items, provides statistics, and allows you to tell the indexing robots to check a certain domains in the collection. You can then point your search dialog at the indexes in your collection so only the paths in your collection will be searched.
The effect of these collections is to filter the results that would have come from the overall Cornell search, allowing only the subset of results that correspond to your list of domains to be reported. The advantage is that with the normal seach dialog you can only specifiy a single domain to filter on - with a collection it can be many domains. Adding a domain to your collection that is outside of the Cornell master list will not cause it to be indexed! You may be wondering what domains are in Cornell's master list.
