QH Libraries Search - Tips: Advanced Search

Provides Tips on how best to use Queensland Health Libraries Search.

Advanced Search

The advanced search function gives you more options to refine your search, and combine different search criteria. For example, you could limit your search to electronic books written by a particular author.

Searching within specific fields

In addition to searching the title, author and subject fields in our records (which you can also do in a simple search), the advanced search allows you to search specifically within fields such as:

  • the year an item was created or published
  • material type
  • the ISBN or ISSN
