Results are ordered by date of publication. If you would like to order the results by the percentage relevance to the query put a check in the 'order by relevance' box. Factors that play a part in determining the relevance value are:
- Frequency of unique words matched.
- Total number of times the matched word appears throughout the catalogue i.e. commonly occuring words such as 'Government' score lower relevance than specialised words such as 'Lula'. This is a statistical normalisation.
- Relevance values calculated relative to other Articles in the search results. A high relevance indicates that the Article is probably more likely to help you than a lower ranked one.
- Higher relevance is awarded when search alternatives (e.g. two phrases separated by 'OR') appear closer to each other than in other search matches.
