    How do I use the filters and the search box?

    • You can initiate a search by entering keywords or selecting filters (e.g., under Subject, Geography, etc.) on the left side of the page.

    • Filters can be used together or in any combination. Each time you select a filter, the results on the page are updated.

    • To start a new search, click on the Clear all button above the search box or deselect each filter.

    • Specified keywords and filters appear above the search box. You can deselect any or all the tags to refine or clear your search.

    How do I refine my search?

    • You can enter keywords in the search box. It is not necessary to use “+” or “, “ or “AND”.

    • You can delete some or all of the keywords from your search string.

    • Quotes around keywords limit the search to a specific phrase.

      • For example, “labour force survey” will limit results to products containing this phrase.

    • Use “or” between keywords to obtain results that contain one or more search terms.

      • For example, labour or­ force or survey will limit results to products containing any or all of these words.

    How does the search work?

    • This search looks for results that have your query term in the title, description, subject, geography, product number or other information about the product.

      • For example, when searching the term ‘Diseases’, all results with the word ‘Diseases’ in the title, description or tagged the subject appear.
