Combining Terms

Search terms are combined with AND and OR. AND and OR must be all caps. You can also group terms using parentheses () for complex searches.

Examples:

  • headline:"Records Management" OR text:"Records Management" => Search for 'Records Management' in both the title and text fields. The results will be displayed if the Phrase we are searching exists in either of the fields.
