Search

The Search page is used to build a list of hits that meet your search criteria.

You can use search templates to facilitate frequent searches. A search template consists of the search term, the time period of the search as well as the sources to be searched. For each search template you can define alerts.

To open more than one search window in parallel, click the Plus symbol in . The new search window is opened in a separate browser tab.

Search

No search term To display all articles of the selected time period and sources, leave the grey search field empty.
Entering search terms To limit the search result to articles containing certain words, enter these words in the grey search field.
Exact search

Exact search is searching for the string of characters entered in the search field in exactly the same way as you enter it and includes the use of upper and lower case. This may be used for search terms taking different meanings according to grammar.

To use exact search, in the search field, enter your search term exactly as required and put it in straight, single, upper quotation marks.

Examples:

'Lahm' is searching for the football player Philipp Lahm, but not for the German adjective "lahm" (lame) – except if the adjective is written with a capital first letter at the beginning of a sentence.

'VOR' is searching for the Austrian transport association “Verkehrsverbund Ostregion”, but not for the German preposition "vor".

Only use the quotation marks '<search term>', but not ‚<search term>‘ or ´<search term>`.

Exact search can be combined with other search terms or search options.
List of suggestions While you enter a search term, a list of suggestions for a likely completion of your search term is displayed.
UND/AND or ODER/OR

If you use the logical UND/AND or a space to separate several words, the search result will only contain articles where all the words you have entered will be present.

With the logical ODER/OR , all articles containing one of the words you have entered will be included in the search result.
Further options You can refine your search terms with further options such as linking several words with logical operators or using placeholders in connection with variations of words.
Clearing search terms Click Clear search term to remove all entries from the search field.
Activating the word stem search Activate the Activate word stem search checkbox to include grammatical variations of your search terms in the search. For example, a search for “house” will also produce hits containing the word “houses”.
