Enter your search terms(s) here

Using the search facility:

Type any word or words in the box (it doesn't matter if you use upper or lowercase). Use the wildcard symbol * to represent one or more characters. For example:

astro* will find astronomy
astrology
astronaut
etc

Boolean searching:

Boolean logic is an information retrieval technique which allows a number of search terms to be combined using logical operators. A search term containing 2 or more words will default to be treated as an AND boolean search term.

AND
used to combine terms so that a record is retrieved only if all the terms occur in it
e.g. cat dog : AND - will find only those documents where both cat and dog occur in the same document

If you wish to use the boolean OR term, which in most cases returns a wider and larger result group, simply change the list term to OR.

OR
used to combine terms so that a record is retrieved if any or all of the terms occur in it.
e.g. cat dog : OR - will find all documents where either cat, dog or both, occur in the document.
