This site utilizes
an "AND" search. This means our search results will include
only pages that return all of your terms. Because of this, the
more words you search on, the smaller the search results.
To broaden
search and increase search results:
- Broaden
search by using "or"
If you wish to find all the pages that have any of your search
terms, use "or" between your search words. For example, a
search on "system or network" would result in pages
containing either "system" or "network."
- Broaden
search by using truncation
Truncation means to shorten a word so you can retrieve any words
that match the first part of it. To truncate, use an asterisk (*) at
the end of the word. For example, "tele*" would retrieve
pages containing "telecommunications,"
"television," "telecommuting," etc.
To narrow
search and decrease search results:
- Narrow
search by turning off fuzzy matching
Our Search automatically matches words that are similar to your
keyword — turn this feature off in Advanced
Search.
- Narrow
search by using "not"
Use "not" to reduce the number of results. For example, a search
on "system not network" would result in pages that contain
"system" but not "network."
