The Any Field search will search all major fields in the database, such as, Author, Title, Publisher, Subject, General Notes, Content Notes, Series, and Abstract\/Summary.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSearch Tips:<\/em>
1) You can change the sequence of the keywords in your search and still get the same result. This applies for search in the fields Title, Author, Publisher, Subject, and Any Field.<\/em>
2) Punctuation marks and other special symbols, when part of the search word, such as: colon (:), comma (,), semi-colon (;), period (.), question mark (?), tilde (~), backtick (`), exclamation point (!), at sign (@), number sign (#), dollar sign ($), percent sign (%), caret\/hat sign (^), hyphen (-), plus sign (+), open and close parenthesis (), square brackets [], curly brackets {}, vertical bar (|), backslash (\\), forward slash (\/), greater than and less than symbols <>, and double quotation marks (\u201c), are ignored.<\/em>
3) To do a right-truncated search, append an asterisk (*) immediately after the search word.\u00a0 Example: when you enter SURFI* as your search word, you will get all records with words beginning with SURFI, such as: SURFING, SURFICIAL, etc. (Note: this search technique does not apply when searching for accession numbers).<\/em>
4) Search in any of the fields is case-sensitive (uppercase or lowercase).<\/em><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n |
