Then you can make use of the Xapian search syntax to make more complex queries, which needing to use advanced search. This may be useful if you have another website you wish to search your EPrints repository with a specific filter on the results returned (e.g. only results for a particular faculty of department). Below is a guide to some of the syntax that can be used with Xapian-based search.
