SEARCH TIPS
Type a word, phrase, or search expression in one or more of the
search boxes. Letter case is not important.
Example: Typing “bull
riding” retrieves that phrase exactly wherever it is used.
Typing “riding” retrieves more results including all
references to any type of riding.
To do a wildcard search shorten the word with a "*" at the end of a string of letters. Example: " elect*" will
find elect, elected, election, electoral, etc.
AND: To narrow
a search, use "&" between
the search terms. Example: " Flood & 1995 " will
find records in which both terms occur, filtering out flood stories
of other years.
OR : To broaden a search, use "/" to stand for “or” between
the search terms. Example: Entering "agriculture
/ farm / ranch / wheat / cattle / alfalfa " will find records
in which any one of these terms occurs and return a good sampling
agriculture related records.
NOT : To search for one term but not another use "!" between
the search terms. Example:" Parade
! stampede " will find the records which reference parades but
filters out instances of Stampede parade.
