How does the publications search work?

For example, if the keywords text field is
Foo Bar
, then we search for any field
that contains Foo
or Bar
.
For example, BifFooBang
would match
the Foo
word in the keywords text field.
The %
character can be used as a wildcard
character, for example Fo%o
will
match Foo
, Fooo
and
FooBaro
. Note that the search mechanism
automatically prepends and appends % characters for us,
so there is no point in searching for
%Foo%
- the leading and trailing %
are always added for us.
The publications search page has an "In" selection
entry that has the fields that are to be searched.
If the (Anywhere)
choice is selected,
then all the fields are searched.
