Search tips:

Searches are not case sensitive.

Results include all the words that you type in the Search for: field. For example, if you search for mineral sciences, the results will include matches for both mineral and sciences. However, the matches would not necessarily have mineral sciences included as a phrase.

To search for a phrase, enclose the phrase in speech marks, for example "Mineral Sciences".

Search results show a list of resources which contain your search criteria anywhere in the title, description, or keyword field, and for some file types* your search criteria anywhere in the body of the resource. * web pages, PDF files, Word documents and plain text files

  1. From the search results, use the item's dropdown menu to select View Details
  2. Under the Overview tab, to the right of the resource name, click on the Edit Metadata icon
  3. Make the required changes
  4. Click Save - the metadata is now amended .
