BOOLEAN OPERATORS
Click to edit Master title style
There are a number of Boolean operators. The ones you will learn in this course are
AND and OR. It is a good idea to capitalize Boolean operators when you use them in
a search.
AND
AND connects all of the main concepts together, and tells the computer you want ALL
of the words in your search results. This narrows your search, giving you FEWER
results. In this example you are asking for a sandwich that has peanut butter AND jelly
“elly or just peanut butter). You will ONLY get peanut butter and jelly
(not just j
sandwiches.
