@books.length seems to work for me.

David,
You’re only finding a single object. You’d want
find_all_by_expediente(params[:searchtext])

its not working for me :S
i got this:
undefined method `length’ for #Expediente:0x59a73e0
Expediente its the real name of the object:
@expediente = Expediente.find_by_expediente(params[:searchtext]) render_text @expediente.length

yes!:. thnx 
by the way, i found this (from the friends in the irc channel):
render_text @expediente.to_a.size #return how many items are in the
instance, its like a cast to Array…
