What is Quick Search and how do I use it?

You can do more complex searches by entering optional search criteria.

business OR technology

business AND technology

To search for a key phrase, put the expression in quotation marks like this:
"internet technology"

Will Knowledge@ Wharton let me conduct more advanced searches?
Yes. If you click on the words advanced search near the Quick Search window or at the bottom of each page, that will take you to the Advanced Search section of Knowledge@Wharton. This lets you search for articles or abstracts of research papers by keywords. You will also be able to narrow the range of your searches by category or by date of publication.
