Search Tips

  • Use "quotation marks" to search for exact phrases.
  • 2 word queries (such as circus elephant) are searched as an exact phrase by default.
  • 3 word queries (such as new york orchestra) are searched as words that need to appear in proximity to each other by default.
  • Use special characters and operators (below) to focus your query.

Truncation and Wildcard Characters

The symbol * is used as a right-handed truncation character only; it will find all forms of a word.  For example, searching for econom* will find "economy", "economics", economical", etc.

The symbol ? is used to replace any single character, either inside the word or the right end of the word.  ? cannot be used to begin a word.  For example, searching for "wom?n" will find "woman" and "women." Searching for "t?re" will find "tire", "tyre", "tore", etc.

Operators

Boolean, proximity and adjacency operators are used to broaden and narrow your search.
