Advance Search Search for Words or Phrase
 * Search for a phrase- this is used if you have a specific phrase, as in a series of words that go together in a row. When you do this World Book will only search for the exact phrase you typed in. For example, if you typed the "running away" you will only find articles with the exact phrasing of "running away" in them. You will not receive articles with just "running" or just "away", you will recieve the whole phrase.


 * Search for all these words- allows you to type words that are not necessarily a phrase and you will find article with every single one of words you typed in.


 * Search for any of these words- allows you to type words that are not necessarily a phrase and you will find article with any of the words you typed in.


 * Search for date- allows you to enter the date "month, year, or day" and you will find articles containing that date. Say you wanted articles about 9/11, then you could type in September 11, 2001.
