By default, your search will look only in the reading materials you have on your Kindle and the metadata (like title and author) of the materials you have stored in Your Media Library on Amazon. This includes anything purchased, any personal documents you have transferred, any local reference materials, and any annotations that you have created. You can expand your search to include locations beyond your Kindle such as Wikipedia, the Web, or the Kindle Store by making the appropriate selection on the Search Results page.
