For an initial search select Basic Search, then from Search by: select Keywords (using and, or, not). Using the Boolean operators will allow you to make your search effective. In the Search for: bar type words to describe your topic, then click on Search. With the AND operator between your search terms, the Catalogue will find records which include each search word. For example: critique AND design finds 15 records which include each of these words somewhere in the record.When there are alternative words for a concept, enclose the words within round brackets ( ) and type OR between each word. Where you want both singular and plural forms of a word, truncate the word and add a question mark ? to the stem. For example: critique? AND (architect? OR design?)The resulting search report shows your search strategy and the number of titles which match that search strategy, followed by a numbered list of the titles arranged according to a relevance formula. If you want to see the most recent books first, go to Sort by above the list of titles, and pull down to Date (latest first).
