New Search Feautures

The Statistics Canada search team is continuing to make enhancements to the search function on the www.statcan.gc.ca internet site. Here are three examples of changes that will be made soon:

• The title link to search results will go directly to the html page. To access the catalogue page, select the Description link. To extend your search to a full text search of PDF documents, select the More results

• You can search within free Census cross-tabulations to find terms that are not found in the catalogue record.

• You can narrow your search by geographic level.

Please see http://www.statcan.gc.ca/search-recherche/nf-eng.htm for more detail.

Please let us know if you or your clients have any concerns when using these new features.
