Search using the Custom Page

Whereas a global search will search all content across Westlaw New Zealand, searching using your custom page will only search the content you have added and selected.

Note: To expand your search to all content in Westlaw New Zealand, click the Westlaw logo to return to the home page.

1. Custom Pages will search all content selected on your page. Tick the boxes next to the content you wish to search, tick again to deselect content. 
2. Type your query into the search box at the top of the page and click Search. 

You can run a terms and connectors search or a plain language search: 
If your search does not contain any recognised Boolean connectors (for example/p, /s, %, +20) the search will default to plain language.

You can trigger a terms and connectors search in three ways: 

Using recognised Boolean connectors such as /p, /s, %,!, +20, e.g., age/s discriminat!
