 === Recommendations for searching == === Recommendations for searching ==
-  
-== Author names == 
-It was noted above that some of the forms used for the names of authors differ from those used in such sources as modern library catalogues. It is recommended that you search the Notes field for variant forms of a name, call up an ISTC record, check what the ISTC standard form of the name is and search for this term in the Author Word and Author Phrase fields.  
- 
-== Bibliographical references == 
-The Bib. ref fields are indexed in HPB, so you can do phrase searching for Goff M122, for example.  
- 
-RLIN: The NRP is the citation phrase index and the NRW is the citation word index. Thus, FIND NRP GOFF M122 will find only those records with that phrase in the RLIN 510 field (where the bibliographical references are held), while the search FIND NRW GOFF will find any record with that word in the RLIN 510.  
-Eureka/Telnet: Same as RLIN. 
-Eureka/Web, Advanced Search scre: 
- 
-Search field:                     Word from Citations                           Goff 
-Boolean connector          AND/OR/AND NOT,            choose AND 
-Search field:                     Words from Citations                          M122 
- 
-This will retrieve three records. The first contains "Goff M122", the other two contain "Goff" and two references to other reference works which also contain a reference to "M122", or even "M-122". 
  
-A word of warning when searching for Hain numbers. Because Hain references are frequently amplified by references from Copinger's or Reichling's supplements, distinguished by various permutations of H, HC, HR etc., it is advisable to use the number on its own when searching for them. +<box round orange 75%>
