Use the Quick Search Bar
found below the banner for quick access to a company, industry or article search. (Where is this?)
Note: The search type will revert back to the default setting for
company search after any search type is used. |
|
|
Try different forms of a
company name. In an article search using the words "Corning Glass
Works" is a better search than just "Corning." The company search
"Kodak" with "Ultimate parent" selected is actually a better search
than using "Eastman Kodak." |
|
|
Spelling and plurals do
make a difference. When doing an industry search the word
"restaurant" yields no results but you will be successful when you
search the word "restaurants." |
|
|
Capitalization does not
matter. |
|
|
Punctuation is important.
Include hyphens: anti-trust
Delete apostrophes: Wegmans stores instead of Wegman's
stores
Ignore ampersands: Bausch Lomb instead of Bausch & Lomb
Use periods between two words: amazon.com
|
|
|
Use the Advanced Search for more options, including Boolean
searches. (Where do I find Advanced Search?) |
