<p align="justify">Please enter your query as search words and their combinations using Boolean operators <b>AND, OR, AND NOT</b> in the box below to search the<b> "back up catalog"</b>. The search words can be words in the title, subject, series as well as surnames of authors and year of publication. It is better to use the <b>$</b> sign to truncate the search words! You can use parentheses to resolve any ambiguity in the search expressions.<br> Example:<br> <b>(informat$ or data or knowledge) and (retriev$ or search$ or discovery or mining) and (1999 or 2000)</b><br><br>
The <b>$</b> sign is truncation symbol and <b> "informat$"</b> - will retrieve <b>'informatics, information'</b> etc.. <b>199$</b> will match <b>1990 to 1999</b>. For limiting from <b>1995 to 2000</b> you have to code <b>(1995 or 1996 or 1997 or 1998 or 1999 or 2000)</b>. You can also use in your query, the symbol <b>* </b>for AND, <b>+ </b> for OR, <b>^</b> for AND NOT and <b>.</b> (dot) for <b>adjacency</b> or to <b>form a phrase</b>.<br> For example: <b>artificial . intelligence</b> means <b>artificial <i>adjacent to</i> intelligence </b>.</p>
Please note that <b>these operators should be preceded and succeeded by one space</b>.
