Search the Library Web Site
Use the form below to search for documents in the COS Library's web site containing specific words or combinations of words. The text search engine will display a weighted list of matching documents, with better matches shown first. Each list item is a link to a matching document; if the document has a title it will be shown, otherwise only the document's file name is displayed. You may need to scroll down the page to find the specific words you searched for. A brief explanation of the query language is available, along with examples. If you find a web site or page you really like please recommend it
Query Language

- information retrieval
- finds documents containing 'information' or 'retrieval
- information or retrieval
- same as above
- information and retrieval
- finds documents containing both 'information' and 'retrieval'
- information not retrieval
- finds documents containing 'information' but not 'retrieval'
- (information not retrieval) and WAIS
- finds documents containing 'WAIS', plus 'information' but not 'retrieval'
- web*
