Search Help and Tips You can search for images by entering a single word, phrase, or a string of words, as well as a century (9th century), decade (1890s), or a specific year (1911). You can also search for a specific picture by its image number, which is located both at the top of the Preview page and under the image in the lightbox display. For help with your lightbox, click here. The more specific you can be the better your chance of finding the pictures you need. Here are some useful tools to help you: When entering more than one keyword, use the qualifying limiter AND. Use OR or NOT to expand or limit your search. Using "And" You can use as many keywords as you like to define the limits of a search. For example, if you want to search for "temples in Cambodia" enter the keywords "temple and Cambodia". The resulting search will find images that have both of these keywords associated with them and, therefore, show only those temples that are located in Cambodia. If your search includes phrases or compound words (eg: 18th Century), please be sure to use And between each compound word and other keywords (example: 18th Century and map and North America). | Using "OR and NOT" You can also use OR or NOT to expand or limit your search. For example, if you are looking for images of the Revolutionary War, but not images depicting the Continental Army, enter "Revolutionary War NOT Continental Army." The resulting search will find images that have the keyword Revolutionary War, but not Continental Army. You can use "OR" to expand your search. For example, if you are looking for images of African art or art in Africa, enter "art AND African OR Africa." |
