Keyword Screen hints
- Use AND to narrow your search. The catalog finds only those documents that contain both the first AND the second search terms
- Use OR to broaden your search. The catalog finds all documents that contain the first search term OR the second search term OR both
- Use NOT to restrict your search. The catalog finds all documents that contain the first search term, but NOT the second.
- Use wildcard symbols to get multiple forms of a word or if you are unsure of the spelling. An asterisk (*) will be replaced by one or more letters. For example femini* would retrieve feminism, feminist, feminine, etc. A question mark (?) will be replaced by one letter. For example wom?n would retrieve woman and women.
