1. How are search results listed?
Search results are sorted by relevance, i.e. content where the search term occurs frequently or prominently is displayed at the top of the list. The date of publication plays a role, but is not the sole criterion.
2. How can I refine my search?
If you enter several terms in your search, the search function will automatically only display content containing all these terms. You can search for a fixed combination of words by putting several words in inverted commas. The search function shows results that exactly match the words you have entered. Searching for “Group” will not show “Group structure”. Add * to a word to search for word combinations, e.g. “Group *” will also display terms such as “Group structure” or “Group management”.
3. Does the search also include PDF files?
Yes. The search function searches the full text of each PDF document.
