Getting the best results

 

While searching this Web site is easy, there are ways to optimize the results. The following are tips for getting the best results from a search:

 

  • Do use words like “doctor” and avoid abbreviations like “Dr.”
  • Do type in lower case letters, such as “child” and avoid using capital letters unless you are typing in a formal name or place, such as “California”
  • Do use the singular form of a word to type in nouns such as “counselor” and avoid plurals like “counselors.”
  • Do think use the glossary of terms to check on a definition or to use one of the words that matches most closely to the word or term that you are searching.
Do remember that the keyword search is locating resources solely noted within this Web site, however, many of these internal resources also provide links to outside resources. To search for authoritative resources available outside of this Web site, use the “tailored search” function.
