Capitalization
Searches are not case sensitive. All letters, regardless of how you type them, will be understood as lower case. For example, searches for Local Policing Plan, local policing plan, and LoCal PoLicing PLAn will all return the same results.
Automatic exclusion of common words
Common words and characters such as "and" and "the", as well as certain single digits and single letters, because they tend to slow down your search without improving the results. We will indicate if a common word has been excluded by displaying details on the results page.
Phrase search
Conducting a phrase search, which simply means putting quotation marks around two or more words, e.g. "local policing plan" will only show results containing the search phrase.
Doing a search is easy. Simply type one or more search terms (the words or phrase that
best describe the information you want to find) into the search box and hit the
'Enter' key or click on the "Submit" button. Note that ' * ' and ' ? ' wildcards
are supported.
