Search Tips

Within search boxes:

• To do a wildcard search use "*" at the end of a string of letters.
  Example: "nurs*" will find nurses, nursing, etc.
• To narrow a search (boolean "and") use "&" between the search terms.
  Example: "war & military" will find records in which both words occur.
• To broaden a search (boolean "or") use "/" between the search terms.
  Example: "labour unions / professional organizations" will find records in which one of these terms occurs.
• To search for one term but not another use "!" between the search terms.
  Example: "health services ! health service".
• To search on a date range use ":" between the search terms.
  Example: "1950 : 1960" will find records with date information between and including the two years.
