Search Methods

Typical Keyword Search

The best way to search and accurately find an available article or topic is by typing slowly into the search box and choosing from a keyword string displayed as you type. This methodology is used to try to show you what is available so you can quickly find what you are looking for (if it is available).

Note: Only 10 options will display at a time from the drop down options. Other options may exist, so you may have to keep typing to show more results or to narrow them down or you can try starting with another keyword.

You can start a new search from the homepage or any article page.
If what you are typing is not showing up as an option, please either continue typing the words out so that the options narrow down or you can try starting with another keyword or try the options below.

Search Database Manually by Outline

This option allows you to see or visualize the various categories and subcategories of content and the articles assigned to them.
You can access the same articles from this route as you would in a typical keyword search.
You can access the ability to manually search by outline from the homepage or any article page (see the below images)

Using the Advance Search Settings

The most effective method for accurately finding what is available in our database is doing a keyword search as described above.
You can also set your own advance search settings and/or limit the search to a specific database or area of content.
You can access the advanced search settings from any page (see images or examples below).
