We've made some substantive updates to our search engine, which will affect how you find resources within our collection.
There's no longer an exact phrase button; use quotation marks to indicate you want to search for a phrase. For example, "market rates" would return would return focused results.
If you enter multiple words, they are treated as a default Boolean "and" so you get results that have all the words. Boolean operators ("and," "or," and "not") are ignored.
Options for limiting your search to a resource type (like Instruments, or Reports & Papers) or to a date range now appear in the right column on the search results page, rather than as part of the initial search form.
Do not use an asterisk (*) to match partial words. The search engine automatically performs "stemming," meaning that partial-word matches should appear in search results.
Some aspects of searching haven't changed at all:
Searching is not case sensitive. "Dog" and "dog" return the same results.
