Search by keyword
- searches for words in the database title and summary
- type a search term in the search box and press return or press the search button
- there is no need to include wildcards such as *. Right hand truncation is done automatically.
- you can enter words or parts of words
Remember: you are not searching the actual databases - just their titles and summaries. |
| Example searches |
| civil engineering | Resources whose titles or summaries include words beginning with civil and beginning with engineering not necessarily next to each other. |
| civ eng | Resources whose titles or summaries include words beginning with civ and beginning with eng not necessarily next to each other. |
| engin | Resources whose titles or summaries include words beginning with engin |
If your search is unsuccessful you may wish to try searching for just part of a word e.g. 'eng' for engineer, engineering, etc.
If you are not searching for a specific databse, it is best to browse the subject list.
