Search Help

This is an explanation of how to search using the search form.


Document Type

This allows you to search for all document types or limit your search to one document type.

Document Title, Report Number, Author, Contractor

You can enter whatever you like in these fields. The database will return all records that contain the values you entered so you don't need to enter a full title or report number for example.

Abstract Text

When a word or words are entered here, all the abstracts will be searched for occurences of these words. For example, if you entered "comparative intermediate" then the database would search all abstracts for the words "comparative" and "intermediate" and return those that match.

Publication Year

This must be a 4 digit number that represents the year you wish to search for.
