Search
Collections Link uses a relatively simple search system. The tips below will help you to find information more easily.
- The site will search any word you enter, including very common words such as ‘and'. So, unless you use quotation marks, the more words you search for, the more results you will get. For instance "location and movement control" will take you to a small number of pages that include that exact phrase, whereas searching without the quotation marks returns over 400 pages.
- The site will list pages that include the words or phrase you have entered. You may need to go to each page and use <edit> and <find on this page> to find what you are looking for.
