Exact Searching

  1. Type your search word or words in the Exact search for box. An exact search looks for exact matches to your word or words in the same order you typed them, and ignores every thing else. For example, if you search for a title with the search words gone with, you will find only "gone with," not "gone with the wind." You can use the wildcard character * to represent other characters. For example, if you search for a title with the search words gone with*, you might find "gone with the wind" and "gone without a trace."

  2. Select a field in the Search by box.

  3. Click Go. The search results show all the titles that matched your search. Click any title to see more information.

Tip: You can limit your search to certain branches, material types, or other options. Click Open Search Options. You can search sources beyond the library. Click Select Databases.

More information: Click Help on the menu bar.
