If you have never used an Internet search engine before you can have SINO do most of the work for you. A search engine is a computer programthat presents you with a list of documents that match the criteria which you specify. You specify the criteria in the form of show me all documentsthat have the words X, Y and Z in them. You can narrow the criteria,for example: show me documents from Western Australia with the wordsX, Y and Z in them.

The important thing to note is that the SINO search engine will return to you a list of documents that contain the words (or phrases) that you specify. Therefore you must choose your search words carefully. The best words (or phrases) to choose are those which are unique or particularly distinctive and are, of course, relevant to the subject matter of your query.

The SINO search engine will relevance rank the results by default, which means that the best matches will appear at the top of the list. You will obtain the best results when searching for unique or distinctive words or phrases.

Using Autosearch

If you are typing in a search from the AustLII home page, the sytem willtreat this as an AutoSearch type search. AustLII will analyse the words for which you are searching and attempt to apply the correct search approach for you.

  • Boolean search
    Autosearch will recognise a boolean search by the presence of boolean operators in the words for which you are searching. So, if you use and, or, near, w/10 etc, then AutoSearch will automatically treat the search as a Boolean search. If you do not want these words to be treated as boolean operators, you must put the phrase of which they are part in double quotation marks (ie 'dogs and cats' and not dogs and cats).NOTE: As of August 2007, common words are also treated as common in phrases. This significantly speeds up searching. If you want to search for a common word, precede it with a # or a + sign (eg 'sale #of goods'). Doing this significantly slows down searching.

  • Section of an Act search
    Autosearch will recognise a search whichcontains any of section 14 of the Privacy Act 1988, Privacy Act 1988, s14 and s14 Spam Act 2003 as a search for a specific section of an Act of Parliament. Note that you must include the year of the Act for this to work.

  • Case name title search
    Autosearch will recognise a search which contains v, v., vs, vs. or re as a search for a case name. The search results will be restricted to documents (usually cases or casenotes) containing the phrases on either side of these identifiers, or immediately after the re in the title. So, for example, the following searches all work: Mabo v Queensland, Queensland vs Mabo, Lenah v Australian Broadcasting, Broadcasting Corporation vs Lenah, Re Smith, and In re Smith. For further information on searching for cases, see theCase Law Help. Note: If you are not searching for a document which contains the case name in its title, but a reference to the case in adocument, then do a boolean search (eg Mabo w/2 Queensland)

  • Single phrase search
    Autosearch will recognise words enclosed in double quotation marks as a phrase search. So the words 'cats and dogs' enclosed in double quotation marks will trigger a phrase search. Note that Autosearch can only deal with a single phrase in double quotation marks. If you want to search for two or more phrases, you will need to use a Boolean search instead. Additionally,if you want to search for a common word in a phrase, you will need to precede it with a # or + sign (eg 'sale #of goods').

Unless autosearch recognises your search as one of the above searches, it will default the search type to an any of these words search. Do not forget that you can override autosearch by explicitly choosing another search type.

Advanced (Boolean) Searches

Online

If you do a search from the Advanced Search Pages, the system switchesby default to boolean mode. The Advanced Search form also allows youto select several other common search types ('all of these words', 'words in a document title' etc).

If you want more than one phrase or word to appear in the retrieveddocuments, put an and between them. For example, tofind documents containing the phrase moral rights as well as the word copyright, you would type:moral rights and copyright.
