Meeting Library offers advanced search functionality. The Advanced Search enables users to build out Boolean queries and pre-filter the results by date and meetings. The Advanced Search is accessible from three primary locations:
- Home page
- Navigation
- Search Results page
Using Advanced Search users can:
- Search by keyword, author/speaker, abstract #, session title, and presentation title using the dropdown
- Search multiple fields by hitting “+”
- Use “and/or/not” Boolean operators if they are using multiple search fields
- Narrow searches to particular meetings and/or dates
Filtering Search Results and Search Results Page
Advanced search results are at the abstract/presentation level. To view sessions, try viewing by Meeting Program.
Search results filtering allows you to target
- Year
- Meeting & Track
- Type (session types, e.g., oral abstract sessions or education sessions)
- Topic
- Media (e.g., abstracts, videos, slides and posters)
Filtering Tips
- If you know the year(s) and meeting(s) where the content you’re seeking was presented, always filter to the specific meeting(s)
- If you’ve searched by a cancer type, explore further revision by drilling down in the “Cancers” or “Treatment” headings under the Topic filter
On the results page, the icons indicate if a record includes
- Abstract
- Video
- Slides
- Poster
