Public Site and Search

Searching for publications on the public site and using suggestions, exact phrase search and advanced search.

Who uses it
Visitor, Registered researcher

The public site shows the catalogue, the open-access files and the institutional pages to everyone. Its English version is under /en. The search box at the top of the site searches all published records.

The search ignores Turkish characters and upper and lower case. As you type, title, keyword and author suggestions appear. Words you put in quotation marks are searched next to each other and in the same order. On the Advanced search page you can choose a field, add conditions with AND, OR and NOT, and give a year range.

If the system administrator has turned them on, the view and download counts of publications and the lists of the most read publications also appear. If you have signed in, you add publications to your own list with the Save to my list button. The open calls for papers of the journals are on the Calls page.
