Search results are grouped by content type to allow quick perusal and help you focus in on the types of results you're interested in.
Content Type groups
Each content type group will display up to 3 results initially, and you can view more by clicking on the teal "View" button underneath the content type group, or by clicking on the Content Type filter in the left-hand panel.
Sorting
Documents are initially sorted by relevance within each content type group. You can also choose to sort by date, either most recent first or oldest first.
Narrow your search/ Filter Results
You can narrow your search results by applying a results filter from the choices found in the left-hand panel. For instance, you can apply a Subject to look for matching items, or a Date range to look for items published between certain dates (note that this represents Publication date, not the Date covered in statistical tables).
Document Type and Administration filters do not apply to Newspaper content.
