Abstract
Disclosed are various embodiments for facilitating a search of published works, non-published works, and/or other works using both visual and text search elements. Upon receipt of an image, the search engine application determines whether the item depicted in the image includes searchable content. Once the search engine application determines that the item depicted in the image contains searchable content, the search engine application facilitates receipt of the search string that may be used to search the searchable content of the item. The search engine application may generate one or more search results in response to the search.
