• Diacritics may or may not be detected in your search. Type the search word without the diacritic. Example: El Niño — type as El Nino.
• Some articles may have an abstract or title in English but the article itself may be in another language. Look at the body of the article to be sure of the language.
• Library Search also provides a language limiter
