Search Tip

Truncation is a great way to improve your keyword search results in the GBS Databases:

Egypt* will get results with the words Egypt, Egyptian, Egyptians, etc.

demonstrat* will get results with the words demonstrate, demonstrated, demonstration, demonstrations, demonstrators, etc.

It's great for results with singular & plural forms of words:

immigrant* will get results with immigrant and immigrants.
