    Stemming

    Search for terms and all words beginning with the root form of the word, such as brief, briefing, briefly.

    Phonetic

    Search for terms that sound similar but are spelled differently, such as smith and smythe.

    Fuzzy

    Search for terms that are not quite an exact match but are close, such as photograph and phottograph. For this option, choose degree of fuzziness:

    • Low: Only a few characters may be incorrect.

    • Medium: A moderate number of characters may be incorrect.

    • High: Up to half of the characters may be incorrect.

  2. Enter the search term or phrase in the Query Text field and click Search. Search syntax such as wildcards (e.g., * to allow any characters) or proximity syntax (e.g., term1 w/5 term2 will find all instances where term1 is within 5 words of term2) can be used. See "Basic Search Expressions" or "Proximity searches" for details.
