General information about Searching
The following links provide information on the searching options available in this portal, as well as explanations on how to use a variety of facilities offered when a record is traced.
General information
The Search terms are words:
• in Greek or/and in Latin-based alphabet
• with or without accentuation (for Greek)
• that can be truncated in the beginning and/or in the end
Truncation
Truncation is useful when you don't know the exact match of a word.
Depending on the case you may use the characters * or ? at the left, both right and left or in the right side of a string so that a word:
• Starts with an arbitrary character before the known part of the word string e.g..*ovinescu or ?ovinescu
• Starts with the same stem e.g. Lovinesc* or Lovinesc? but it ends with an arbitrary character/s
• Starts and ends with arbitrary characters (* or ?), which means that we know the middle part of the word, e.g. *ovin* or ?ovin* or even *ovin? or ?ovin?
Simple Search
Simple Search is actually a global search (in all the catalogs) applicable in all fields of a record and in all-available local catalogues.
To make a Simple Search:
You enter the text or the word you want to search.
Advanced Search
Advanced search allows you to make a search in the catalogue using one or more fields in your search query.
• Search Fields
• Type of Connection between the fields
• Extra Parameters
For example:
• Search fields
For information on the Search Fields and examples on the each field, press here.
• Type of relation between the fields
Search terms can be combined by the use of the boolean operators and, or, and not:
• Logical conjuction, use of the term AND
Thus the search request
Author: marcel proust and title: akoma ena kalokairi
Means that we are looking for a record/s where the author is marcel proust and the title akoma ena kalokairi
• Logical disjuction, use of the term OR
The search request
Author: marcel proust or title: akoma ena kalokairi
Means that we are looking for a record/s where either the author is marcel proust or the title akoma ena kalokairi
• Negation, use of the term NOT
The search request
Author: marcel proust and not title: akoma ena kalokairi
Means that we are looking for a all records having marcel proust as author and any title except the one named akoma ena kalokairi
• Note
By default, the relation is logical conjuction.
• Extra parameters
There is also the possibility to limit a search by using the following parameters:Date, institution, language and type of material can further limit all searches. you can limit your search request by using either one or more (all) of these fields:
• using dates to confine the search within those dates,
• select the institution that owns the digital record,
• select the language of the record
• select the type of work of the record
Dates
In the dates parameter you fill in the whole year. in case you don't know the precise date then you may fill the first two digits (e.g. 19).
It can be used one of the two dates (e.g. date to 1800, has as a result all the records until 1800)
Institutions
The user may select the institution to which belong the original records (e.g. aegean university).
Language
The user can select the language in which it was written the record (e.g. english,german e.t.c. )
Type of Work
The user can select the type of work that the record belongs to (e.g. doctoral, postgraduate)
Note
In order to make a search you must fill in at least one term.
Browse
Browse offers you the possibility to wander in an alphabetic or alpharithmetic index (like in a dictionary). Search ends up in an index where you can move forward and backwards. You don't have to type in capitals.
How to Browse:
Choose the index you want to search, enter the text and push the button Browse.A list starting with the text you have entered will show up.
For example:
If you choose Language and then you type gre then an alphabetic list will show up which will start from gre and that will concern the language in which every record is written.
Note

One record can be included in more than one set (e.g. a record may exist both in Neoellinistis and Archives)
The material is grouped in the following sets :
Digital Collections
The set Digital Collections represents the theses divided in faculties of the current database.
Type of Work
