Search Tips

 |
|
- Search results will appear with a title and the first 250 characters of the summary (if there is a summary). The title of each search result is a hyperlink to the entire item of content. If your search returns a document, the title of the document will appear with a
 symbol next to it. - To search for the occurrence of one particular word (for example, picnic), simply type it into the text box and click "Go".
- If you want to search for the occurrence of more than one word, there are two ways to do so: 1) You can type in a specific phrase in quotes ("picnic shelter"), which will find cases where these words appear in this order directly next to each other; or 2) You can type in a series of words that may or may not appear next to each other (picnic area shelter), in which case the search will interpret this as a search for occurrences of these words together but not in the same order (searching for the words picnic and area and shelter).
- If you do not know the exact phrase used in the Web site, and want to present a option for searching, you need to add the word "or" between the words or phrases you are searching for (picnic shelter or area).
- You may want type in only part of the word you are searching for to make sure all tenses or variations of the word show up in your search results (area instead of areas). This partial word search is not applicable to searches for exact words or phrases in quotes.
- There are a very limited number of words (under 20) that will not return the results expected -- this is due to how our Web site is constructed technologically. If this seems to be the case, try searching for an exact phrase by adding quotes (instead of picnic, search for "picnic").
