Some SEARCH TIPS

Yellow Star Use a phrase within the "     " whenever you can to help you focus on your target.

Yellow Star Keep your searches simple (usually no more than two terms, or two phrases within the "     ",
or one term and one phrase within the "    ").

Yellow Star If there are terms or phrases within the "     " that you want present in every document retrieved, precede both by a   +    no space or combine them with the Boolean AND.

Yellow Star  Use the    *   at the end of words to get all forms of the word.

Yellow Star  Use a   -    minus sign in front of a word to exclude words from your search
(Be careful with this one).

Yellow Star Make sure your search terms are spelled correctly.

Yellow Star The more similar the words are that you use in a search, the more results you will get back.
(Example: restaurant cafe bistro)
