Search Examples

If multiple search terms are provided, their effect is ANDed - Heurist returns only the records matching all the search terms. For example, searching keyword:timelines keyword:mapping matches only records that have been marked with the keyword timelines and the keyword mapping.

Entire phrases can be matched by enclosing them in double-quotes. For example, searching "sydney university" will match all records with a title containing sydney university in that order, as a complete phrase; whereas searching sydney university (without the double-quotes) will match records with both sydney and university, anywhere in the title, such as "University of New South Wales, Sydney".

To find records matching either of two search terms, add an uppercase OR between the terms. For example, searching keyword:timelines OR keyword:mapping matches records that have been marked with either of the timelines or mapping keywords.

Resources matching a term may be omitted from the results by preceding the term with a single dash. For example, searching university -url:usyd.edu.au matches any record which has university in the title, and does not have usyd.edu.au in the URL.
