How to search

Searching - in short

What do you search through?

  • The journals at tidsskrift.dk are (with a few exceptions) available in digital full text. This means that your search will return results from the articles' titles, abstracts, body text, and other registered metadata.
  • A few journals have been digitized from paper, and in these you cannot necessarily search the body text, but only the title.
  • If you search directly at the frontpage of tidsskrift.dk, you will search for articles from all journals at tidsskrift.dk.
  • If you go to the website of one of the journals at tidsskrift.dk, you will only search for articles from this specific journal.

Optimize your search:

  • Write AND, OR, NOT between you search words to combine, expand or limit your search result. Remember to write AND, OR, NOT with capital letters only.
  • Use * in your search string, if you are unsure how to spell a word, or if you want your search to include variants of a word. E.g. a search for col*r will return results with both colour and color. A search for child* will return results with both child's, children, childhood and so on.
  • Use "..." quotation marks if you search for coherent words or sentences. E.g. a search for "climate change" will return results where these two words are written next to each other in this exact order.
  • When you have done an initial search, you can use the filters to narrow the results by author and/or publication date. You can also sort your results according to parameters such as relevance, publication date, and journal title.
