Using OR, AND, wildcards and quotes to refine your searches

If you are getting too many results (or too few), try using one of the operators explained below.

AND between your words will find items containing BOTH words. For example, retirement AND benefits will return items containing both the words "retirement" and "benefits".
OR between your words will return items containing any of the words you enter. For example retirement OR benefits will return items containing either word.
Searches are not case-sensitive so entering "retirement" is the same thing as entering "Retirement".
If you enter more than one word in the box without using "AND or "OR", you will get only items that contain those words next to each other. For example, entering just retirement benefits will return items that contain the phrase "retirement benefits".
Don't use quotes around your terms unless you mean to find them in a phrase.
If you want to search using a word part like "retire" to also return documents containing words like "retirement", type the word part followed by an asterisk: "retire*".
