Tips for unit searches
The matching of the string you enter is done on any unit or
frequently used service that contains that string in its
full name or the search guide list specified for the unit.
Searching for multiple words:
- Enter multiple words separated by blanks or plus signs (+)
to search for all of the words (i.e. this is an AND search)
e.g. information media -> searches for information
AND media
information + media -> searches for information
AND media
- Enter multiple words separated by the word OR to search
for any of the words (i.e. this is an OR search)
e.g. information OR media -> searches for information
OR media
e.g. information or media -> searches for information
OR media
Searching for an exact string:
- Enter the words in double quotes (") to search
for that exact string
e.g. "information tech" -> searches for the full string
information tech
