More Search tips

Use the Advanced Search screen

Combine terms to be more precise using the 'AND' command
e.g. coffee AND import AND Canada

Find synonyms using the 'OR' command
e.g. international OR global

Use single quote marks to match multiple words exactly (**use double quote marks in Summon and in research databases)
e.g. 'business analysts'

Use truncation (*) to find words with different endings:
e.g. correction* will find correction, corrections, and correctional (but not corrective)

Find the library subject terms for your topic
e.g. if you browse by SUBJECT for the keyword Taser (which is a brand name) you'll see that libraries use the term stun guns instead
