Searching Using the Boolean Boxes

The Boolean search boxes guide you through criteria selection, allowing you to specify the metadata that is included or excluded from your search. These boxes can be used either in conjunction with or instead of the free text search box.

To perform a search using the Boolean search boxes:

  1. Click the More Options tab.

  2. Select the appropriate metadata from the Metadata Field menu.
    Result:
    The page refreshes with the appropriate subsequent fields in the row.

  1. Select Contains or Does not contain from the association menu.

  2. Enter or select the desired criteria associated with the metadata entered/selected in the Criteria box/menu.

Tip: This box changes depending on the metadata field selected in Step 2. For example, if you select Slug in the Metadata Field menu, you must enter one or more words in the Criteria box (such as Korea Nuclear) that appears (or does not appear) in the Slug line. However, if you select Category in the Metadata Field menu, you must select an appropriate news category (such as Business - F) from the Criteria box menu.

  1. (If necessary) Select AND or OR from the Operator menu and repeat this procedure in the following row(s). Click Add Row or to add extra search rows to further narrow your search. Click remove search rows.
