Tips on Searching
- - Use spaces to separate keywords and/or phrases.
- - Note that * and ? wildcards are supported. For example, *bird would
return both "bluebird"
as well as "catbird" but ???bird would return catbird but
not bluebird.
- To find a specific regional report, enter the following in the search field (enclosed in quotes):
For spring, summer, or fall: "region n season yyyy" Example: "region 5 summer 1982"
For winter: "region n winter yyyy-yyzz" Example: "region 10 winter 2002-2003"
Please Note:
1. In the search results list, you can find the year, volume, and number of the Kingbird issue
containing the article cited. The filename
in the URL is in the format y YYYYv VVnN xxxxxxx.pdf,
so you can easily pick out the year, volume, and issue number, plus information
like author, kingbird region, etc., depending on the type of article cited.
2. You may find errors in some files in the database. Most of these have been
introduced during the automated scanning and text recognition process. If you
find substantive errors that you feel need to be corrected, please
. Please be aware also that there may be exception cases where a word was
not recognized by the indexing software in a particular file, so that
the file may not appear in the results list when that word is searched
for.
