In addition to the homepage, a search box can be found in the masthead on every page. Look for the magnifying glass icon with the rollover text 'Apply Search'. Use this search box to perform a simple keyword search across all available records. Results include both metadata and any available full-text transcripts and are displayed as a list sorted by relevance.
To search within a specific collection, navigate to the collection page from the main bar and click on the box with the text "Search Entire Collection".
Access the Advanced Search page from the link that appears below the search box on either the homepage or in the masthead. With Advanced Search, you can perform a fielded search and add criteria such as date ranges and controlled vocabulary or collection filters at the outset of a search, rather than performing a keyword search that must then be refined.
Search for several keywords or phrases using the AND, OR and NOT Boolean operators. Apply any desired filters and selections will display in the search criteria box at the bottom of the page. Click the 'Search' button to run, or the 'Clear form' button to clear all search criteria and begin a new search. Searches that have been run during the current session display on the right in the 'Previous searches' box. Simply click the hyperlinked terms to rerun the search.
Click 'Search' and a list of results will display. Search criteria displays at the top of the page in the search criteria box, and from here the current search can also be saved to My Account.
Using the search box that appears to the right of the title, you can search both the metadata and any available transcripts within a record. Results will display in the same tab below the asset as they do when you navigate to a record from a sitewide search.
