Simple Search provides you with a form to complete. This enables you to combine a selected number of categories e.g. author, title, abstract and university. A full listing of the subject categories and their codes is available online. For example if you select the Title field then type in language, then type Aberdeen in the University field and 1998 in the Year field, all the abstracts of the theses from Aberdeen University which have language in the title and were written in 1998 will be retrieved. Advanced Search enables the user to formulate more complex queries.
