- <para>The search input boxes allow you to search by Keyword, Title, Author, Subject, and Series, and to combine these searches to narrow your results.</para> \r
- <para>The default setting displays three boxes for keyword searches. You can click on the down arrows to select Title, Author, Subject or Series as well. \r
- If desired, you can use different searches in the different boxes. For instance, you can enter the title of a book in one box, and the author in another. </para> \r

- <para>The default Sort Criteria is <emphasis>by Relevance</emphasis>. Generally items are considered more relevant the more often your search terms show up within a \r

- <para>You can also choose to sort your results alphabetically by author or title, or chronologically by publication date.</para>\r
- <para>When you select <guilabel>Title</guilabel>, <guilabel>Author</guilabel> or <guilabel>Publication Date</guilabel>, the drop down box below becomes active. \r

+ <title>Stemming</title>\r
+ <para>A search for <emphasis>dogs</emphasis> will also return hits with the word\r
+ <emphasis>dog</emphasis> and a search for <emphasis>parenting</emphasis> will return\r
+ results with the words <emphasis>parent</emphasis> and<emphasis> parental</emphasis>.\r
+ This is because the search uses stemming to help return the most relevant results. That\r
+ is, words are reduced to their stem (or root word) before the search is\r
+ performed.</para>\r
+\r
+ <para>The stemming algorithm relies on common English language patterns - like verbs ending\r
+ in <emphasis>ing</emphasis> - to find the stems. This is more efficient that looking up\r
+ each search term in a dictionary and usually produces desirable results. However, it\r
+ also means the search will sometimes reduce a word to an incorrect stem and cause\r
+ unexpected results. To prevent a word or phrase from stemming, put it in\r
+ double-quotes.</para>\r
+\r
+ <para>Understanding how stemming works can help you to create more relevant searches, but\r
+ it is usually best not to anticipate how a search term will be stemmed. For example,\r
+ searching for <emphasis>gold compass</emphasis> does not return for <emphasis>golden\r
+ compass</emphasis> because the search does not recognize <emphasis>gold</emphasis> as\r
+ a stem of <emphasis>golden</emphasis>.</para>\r

+ to a search engine like Google. The relevance is determined using a number of factors,\r
+ including how often and where the search terms appear in the item description, and\r
+ whether the search terms are part of the title, subject, author, or series. The results\r
+ which best match your search are returned first rather than results appearing in\r
+ alphabetical or chronological order.</para>\r

+ <para>You do not need to enter authors last name first, nor do you need an exact title or\r

+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>Do not use an AND operator to join search terms. </para>\r
+ <itemizedlist>\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>An AND operator is automatically used to join all search terms. So, a search\r
+ for <emphasis>golden compass </emphasis>will search for entries that contain\r
+ both <emphasis>golden </emphasis><emphasis role="bold">and\r
+ </emphasis><emphasis>compass</emphasis>.</para>\r
+ </listitem>\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>o Boolean operators such as <emphasis>and, or, not </emphasis>are not\r
+ considered special and are searched for like any other word. So, a search for\r
+ <emphasis>golden and compass </emphasis>will not return the title\r
+ <emphasis>golden compass</emphasis>. Putting it another way, there are no\r
+ <emphasis>stop </emphasis>words that are automatically ignored by the search\r
+ engine. So, a title search for <emphasis>the and or not </emphasis>of (and in\r
+ any order) yields a list of titles with those words. </para>\r

+ <para>Don’t worry about white space, exact punctuation, or capitalization.</para>\r
+ <orderedlist inheritnum="ignore" continuation="restarts">\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>White spaces before or after a word are ignored. So, search for\r
+ <emphasis>golden compass</emphasis> gives the same results as a search for\r
+ <emphasis>golden compass</emphasis>.</para>\r
+ </listitem>\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>A double dash or a colon between words is reduced to a blank space. So, a\r
+ title search for <emphasis>golden:compass </emphasis> or <emphasis>golden --\r
+ compass </emphasis>is equivalent to <emphasis>golden\r
+ compass</emphasis>.</para>\r
+ </listitem>\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>Punctuation marks occurring within a word are removed; the exception is _.\r
+ So, a title search for <emphasis>gol_den com_pass </emphasis>gives no result.\r
+ </para>\r
+ </listitem>\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>Diacritical marks, &, or | located anywhere in the search term are\r
+ removed. Words or letters linked together by . (dot) are joined together\r
+ without the dot. So, a search for <emphasis>go|l|den & comp.ass\r
+ </emphasis>is equivalent to <emphasis>golden compass</emphasis>. </para>\r
+ </listitem>\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para> Upper and lower case letters are equivalent. So, <emphasis>Golden\r

+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>Enter your search words in any order. So, a search for <emphasis>compass\r

+ results. </para>\r
+\r
+ <itemizedlist>\r

+ <para>This is also true for author searches. Both <emphasis>David Suzuki\r

+ <itemizedlist>\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>Use specific search terms. Evergreen will search for the words you specify, not\r
+ the meanings, so choose search terms that are likely to appear in an item\r
+ description. For example, the search <emphasis>luxury hotels </emphasis>will produce\r
+ more relevant results than <emphasis>nice places to stay</emphasis>.</para>\r
+ </listitem>\r
+ </itemizedlist>\r
+ <itemizedlist>\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>Search for an exact phrase using double-quotes. For example <emphasis>“golden\r
+ compass”</emphasis>. </para>\r
+ <itemizedlist>\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>The order of words is important for an exact phrase search.\r
+ <emphasis>“golden compass”</emphasis> is different than <emphasis>“compass\r
+ golden”</emphasis>. </para>\r
+ </listitem>\r
+\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>White space, punctuation and capitalization are removed from exact phrases\r
+ as described above. So a phrase retains its search terms and its relative\r
+ order, but not special characters and not case. </para>\r
+ </listitem>\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>Two phrases are joined by and, so a search for <emphasis>“golden compass”\r
+ “dark materials” </emphasis>is equivalent to <emphasis>“golden compass”\r
+ <emphasis role="bold">and</emphasis> “dark materials”</emphasis>. </para>\r
+ </listitem>\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>To prevent <link linkend="catalogue-search-methodology-stemming"\r
+ >stemming</link> , use double quotes around a single word or a phrase. So, a\r
+ search for <emphasis>parenting</emphasis> will also return results for\r
+ <emphasis>parental</emphasis> but a search for\r

+ <itemizedlist>\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>Exclude a term from the search, using <emphasis>-</emphasis> (minus) or !\r

+ <emphasis>vacations !britain</emphasis> will search for materials on vacations\r
+ that do not make reference to Britain. </para>\r
+ <itemizedlist>\r
+ <listitem>\r
+ <para>Two excluded words are joined by <emphasis>and</emphasis>. So, a search for\r

+ <emphasis>!potter</emphasis>. </para>\r

+ <para>A + (plus) leading a term has no role and is removed. So,\r
