Boolean Logic

You can combine search terms with Boolean operators (AND, OR, NOT) to expand or narrow the scope of the query.

－ AND： Connect search terms with AND or spaces to query articles that contain multiple keywords.

For example, query cat AND dog, the results return articles that contain both cat and dog.

－ OR： Connect search terms with OR to query articles that contain at least one of the keywords.

For example, query cat OR dog, the results return articles that contain cat, dog, or both.

－ NOT： Connect search terms with NOT to query articles that do not contain specific keywords.

For example, query cat NOT dog, the results return articles that contain cat but not dog.
