Quick search hints:

  • Words separated by spaces are each searched for, ordered by relevance.
  • Words surrounded by double quotes are searched as a phrase e.g: “Ngati Raukawa”
  • Less exactly, “migration occupation”~5 will find migration and occupation within 5 words (in any order)
  • Join terms using AND, OR, NOT (in capitals). Lowercase will search for the words themselves.
  • Truncation/Wildcard symbols: “*” and “?” Eg: franc?s will find francis or frances. franc* will find france, francis, franchising, frantic, etc.
  • To limit searches to particular fields in the MLCMBI collection only, use this syntax:
    block: otaki where “block:” is the field name, and “otaki” is the area. Note the colon!
    Other fields are: judge:, place:, kaikorero:, hapu: (includes iwi), and notes:
