Navigating the LaneConnex Search Menu

See helpful search tips and find out more about the LaneConnex Search

At the top of every page on the LaneConnex website is a search box, with a pull-down menu to the left. This menu enables you to limit your search to certain types of resources, clinical areas, or areas of the website. The default search changes depending upon which area of the website you are in, but you can always select any option.

For any search you conduct using this menu, the LaneConnex search engine searches all of Lane's primary resource categories for relevant information and displays a search results tab for each category. By default, the tab matching your search menu option is highlighted, and those results appear in the search results area. To see results from another category, click the tab for that category.
