Search Method

 
Oasis ignores and forgives variations in punctuation, such as apostrophes, quota- tion marks, brackets, and multiple continuous spacing. As defaults, the use of upper and lower case letters and special characters such as diacritics are ignored. However, Oasis can be configured to recognize these items. Entries conform to Z39.50 use attribute standards.
 
Three search methods are available: Standard, Enhanced, and Visual.
 
Note: The following parameters  can be applied
when performing  a search: truncation asterisk (*)
at the beginning  or end of a keyword; wild card
character (?) within a keyword; quotation
marks  (“ ”) around a phrase; and Boolean operators
(AND, OR, and NOT)  to connect keywords
within  a keyword text box.
