Searching your Boards site

The Search screen makes it easy to find a word or term in almost any section of the site, all from a single location.

Note

You must have an active Internet connection to use the search.

  1. Select the Search icon in Current Books, Archived Books or Resource Center.

  2. Select the Current Books, Archived Books or Resource Center buttons to select the sections to search. You can select these options in any combination to search multiple sections at once.

  3. Select the small arrow to the left of the Search field to reveal search options:

    • All terms shows only documents where all terms appear. If you searched for "My Documents", this search would result in a list of documents that only include both the words "My" and "Documents."

    • Any term shows all documents that contain any one of the words being searched for. For example, if you searched for "My Documents", this search would result in a list of all documents that include the word "My" or the word "Documents", or both words.

    • Exact phrase shows only documents where the exact phrase being searched for appears. If you searched for "My Documents", this search would only result in a list of documents where the term "My Documents" appeared exactly.

  4. Select the Search field and type in the terms for which you would like to look.

  5. Select the Search button on the digital keyboard. The search process may take several moments.

  6. Search results appear in a list on the left of the display. Swipe up and down this list to explore the results. Select a result to display a preview of the document on the right of the display.

  7. Select the Filter button to filter the search results by committee, or to sort results by meeting date, document name, document type or the number of times the search term appears in the document.

  8. Search terms appear highlighted on the Page preview. Select this preview to go to that page in the Page view. Swipe the preview to the right or left to go to the previous or next search result.

    Your most recent search information will be retained on the search screen until you conduct a new search, are disconnected from Diligent Boards, or check for updates.
