Fill in as much as you'd like. Using more than one line will narrow the search.
If you choose Yes for "Words adjacent," you can type in the phrase computer
programming and the system will understand that you want only records that have the word
computer NEXT to the word programming.
Lower-case letters will find matches of capitalized words also. For example, computer will
find matches for computer, Computer and COMPUTER.
Boolean AND is assumed between words. You may use the Boolean operators AND, OR and NOT in
your search string. For example, you could type heart or cardiac to retrieve all records having
heart or cardiac in them.
Use the ? character to find matches that contain portions of words. For example, gun? will
retrieve gun, guns, gunners, gunnery, gunning, etc. In another example, ?ology will
retrieve anthropology, archaeology, psychology, etc. The ? character may also be used to find
variant spellings. For example, alumi?m will find both the American spelling, aluminum,
and the British spelling, aluminium.
