Word Search lets you search the RTPI Library Catalogue for words and phrases.

1.	In the find box enter the word(s) you are searching for. If you enter more than one word, the search will assume it is a phrase. You do not need to use quotation marks. If you want to search for two words separately to broaden the search, put one word in each box and select ‘and’. For example “inspection” and “report”. If you enter the stem of a word, the search will find all versions of that word. However, if you select the whole word only box, it will find your exact term. For example, “inspec” will find inspected, inspect, inspection, inspections etc. If you know the media of the title you want to find you can restrict your search. For example 'local transport' and media type 'journal' will find you the details of the journal Local Transport Today.
2.	Click the GO button to submit the search request and a list of items matching your search criteria will be displayed. When the results are more than a hundred they are displayed in pages of ten, otherwise the full results are listed. The resulting list of items is, by default, displayed in reverse published date (most recent first) order. This can be changed to alphabetical order of title by checking title.
3.	Click on the hyperlinked title of the item to see full Catalogue details.
4.	If you want to view a number of full details, put a tick in the checkbox by the title and then click the button in the top right, list selected. Your results are then laid out in a format which you can fully view, print, cut and paste.
5.	Click the reset button to clear your search.
