Search tips

  • Use the fewest words possible and avoid helper words such as where, or why.
  • Use words most likely to appear in the report title you're looking for. For example, to look at a report in the Perspectives on Calgary series, use the phrase Perspectives on Calgary.
  • Use the year of the report you are looking for (if you know it). The Corporate Research Team (CRT) conducts a lot of annual research so knowing the year will help you narrow your search field. For example, search 2023 Perspectives on Calgary to pull up all the reports from 2023. 
  • Choose descriptive words to narrow down your topic. A term like Water Services will bring up every report CRT has completed with a section or question on water services; whereas, if you wanted to look for a specific type of water report search for a specific topic like water services customer research.
