Canned browse for a particular subject

[sarahjeansweeney]

This enhancement was requested by Archives during the 2017 CFP process:

The Archives team has been using DRS Sets to bring together similar material in one place. The best example of this is the Freedom House CERES site, which has two buttons on its home page that link to DRS Sets for "People" and "Places".

Rather than directing users back to the DRS, the Archives team would prefer to build new exhibits that include material that match a particular subject string and retrieve all records with that string.

Desired functionality:

• Option 1) match on a full subject string, i.e. Women -- Massachusetts -- Boston (similar to Digital Commonwealth functionality)
• Option 2) match the part of the string, like "Women" of : Women -- Massachusetts -- Boston
• Stretch goal: match on subject type, i.e. topical headings, geographic headings, personal name headings

Display:

• Basic display: Similar to the existing full browse feature, with facets and sort options
• Stretch goal: Insert browse grid into an exhibit page with no facets or other limits so the page can be customized (just a dump of all matching files displayed in a pinterest or other gallery)

Other Options Human-readable URL that could be used to link to a search or browse query? At the very least make the browse URLs human readable (right now is: http://freedomhouse.library.northeastern.edu/browse/ )

Bonus, more generalized option, is to make this available in all multi-item displays (gallery, slider, timeline, am I missing some?). That's more work on the UI, but also avoids the bifurcation of options for different display types.
