Truncation - A symbol put at the end or in the middle of a word to catch variant endings or spellings of that word when searching a database. If you are searching for information on computers, and you want to make sure you pick up any records with the word computer or computing or computerized, you would put a truncation symbol at the point in the word where various endings can begin to occur (e.g. comput?). Databases use various symbols to represent truncation such as $, #, +, *, !, ?. Some databases like the IEEE Electronic Library truncate automatically. Some databases allow for truncation symbols in the middle of the word to pick up variant spellings. For instance entering behavio?r would retrieve behavior and behaviour.
Consult available user's guides or a library staff member to determine if a resource permits truncation. Please note that you cannot use a truncation symbol in UTNetCAT.
