Book Search Tips

To do a book search, what will you put in the search box? Here are some tips:

Keyword Boolean is recommended for topic search.
use the three boolean operators "and", "or", "not" to connect your keywords, e.g. food and asia
Quotation marks are used for phrase search
e.g. "family planning" and china
"?" is the truncation symbol
We can use "?" to represent various word endings, e.g. "method?" (it will retrieve methods, methodology, methodological...)
