Anyone can utilize our search and filtering capabilities, but there are some caveats and things to keep in mind when searching. Keeping these in mind will help your search populate the most relevant results and help you successfully find items that are ready to be reused.
Tips & tricks
Symbols and spaces matter!
Example: If you’re using the Category filter to search for dry-erase boards but type “dry erase,” no results will populate. Make sure to include the “-”
Example: If you’re unsure if a resource would be one word or two, try both. If you’re looking for a “footstool” and no results populate when typing that in, try “foot stool” instead.
Keyword searches are not case-sensitive
Example: Searching “Aeron chair” and “aeron chair” will return the same results.
Location filter - “My organization” allows you to filter for listings created within your organization, while “Radius” allows you to search based on distance and could be used to find listings internal or external to your organization.
If you’re looking for an exact match on your search results, try putting quotation marks around your keyword search.
Example: If you’re looking for an exact style of chair, try typing “Herman Miller Mirra 2 Chair”, including the quotation marks, into the search bar.
