Issue: study the importance of "browse" as a navigational methodology in 
current Web design.

I am looking for articles that focus on the importance of browsing a Web 
site to find information verses the importance of keyword searching. What
 percentage of users prefer to go directly to the search function of a 
site? How many would rather look through a list of titles or subjects?

The specific question: if there is an A-Z Index offered with only  a
"search" field... how important is having the functionality to view all?
