UXLabs is participating in an InnovateUK-funded project investigating the use of complex search strategies in the workplace, with the aim of producing requirements for the design of next generation search tools. By collaborating in this research you can help make the process of creating and managing complex search queries easier and more efficient.

Complex search strategies can include Boolean queries such as this:

((((curtiss) NOT (curtis))) OR (((curtiss-* OR ~Curtiss-Wright* OR curtiss NEAR/1 wright*) AND ((model* OR monoplane*) NOT (prototype*)))))

as well as line-by-line strategies and fielded queries (e.g., combining keywords with controlled terms).
