Searching By Form
1) From the home page of each database, click on the "Advanced Search by Form" link.
2) You will then be provided with a list of searchable fields and their corresponding keyword lists. In addition to the above the advanced search by form may also provide a field(s) where the user can type in a keyword that will help to refine the search results.
3) Select the category and keyword you want to search on by clicking on it (NOTE: Hold down the Ctrl Key (PC) or Command Key (Mac) to select or de-select multiple items within a field) and type in any other search options you desire, and click "Search".
Your results will appear as a list of links to records that matched your search terms.
4) To perform multi-variable searches via the Web, build your own search string on the search form.
