E.g.
It is possible to search for regular character sets, like years by writing a symbol ~ in front of the character string (e.g. to search for a range of years, such as the 1910s and 1920s write: ~19[1-2][0-9])
From the point of view of searching there is no difference between lower and upper case, and letters with short or long accent marks (e.g. Malmö or Malmő will recall the same number of hits, but Malmo will not).
It is possible to set the number of hits displayed on a page.
Click the button 
so start a search in the catalogue, or 
to clear the terms from the search form.
Quick search
It is worth making a quick search when there are not many search terms. It is also possible to use the symbols * or ? for truncation or masking. If you enter several terms in the title field, they will automatically be combined by AND and searched accordingly.
Saved searches
In the 'Saved searches' window you will find your pervious searches resulting in hits. (Saved searches will disappear if the catalogue is not
used for 30 minutes.)
If you want to repeat a search, to broaden or limit it, click on the line and the search will be re-entered into the search form.
Results
After performing an Exact search the Result page will be displayed. If the result of the search is one single record only, the record will
be displayed immediately.
Many fields can be used as hyperlinks throughout the whole database. Click on a hyperlink and you will receive a result, as you would have initiated an Exact search, with the hyperlink, as pattern. E.g. clicking on the author in the 'Author' field of a record you will get the list of records belonging to that author.
Invoke a new search or browse by clicking on the relevant button again.
Display of hits
It is possible to invoke a more detailed form of the hits by clicking on the title. First the bibliographic description of the work is given
in a short version, but you may choose the detailed or MARC format as well from the drop down menu.

It is possible to form sets only if records have been selected from the hits. It is possible to give names to sets, to combine them, and to
select records from the sets.

- Set operations (operations between two sets - union, intersection, exclusion - will result in a third)
