FABIG Search Help

The FABIG Website allows users to search in a number of standardised forms:

• word  -- searches for documents containing the listed keyword
  
• word1 word2 word3 -- searches for documents containing ALL of the listed keywords in any order
  
• "word1 word2" -- searches for documents containing the specified phrase, that is containing both word1 and word2 where word2 immediately follows word1
  
• (word1 and not word2) or (word3 and word4) -- searches for documents for which the specified boolean expresion is true; please note that you can use the and, or, not operators as well as parentheses
  

You can also use wildcard characters (? and *),
e.g. entering comput* will match all of the following words: computer, computers, computing. Another example is *tribut? which will match words like: contribute, attribute.

Please note that you can mix the above syntax,

e.g.: "word1 word2" or "word1 word3"

Another example: "*ord?" and not word1
