Search Tips

For scripture citation search, a drop down menu will show all the available citations as soon as you start to type.

For fulltext search, type in any keywords that come to mind, and the search engine will return results ranked by relevancy. You can also use some special keystrokes to refine your search. They include:

symbol	use to...
" " (double quotation marks)	search for a phrase
* (asterisk)	search with a wildcard
+ (plus sign)	require that the word or phrase be present in all results
- (minus sign)	require that the word or phrase NOT be present in any results
~ (tilde)	make the word or phrase fall lower in the results; acts like the - (minus) symbol without entirely removing the word or phrase from the results

This new version of the Revised Common Lectionary website is a response to requests from our users and to technological changes. Many new features have been added, such as printing and downloading functions. The previous version is still available and will remain through the end of Year C, 2010.

Prayers: The texts of the Revised Common Lectionary Prayers are now linked to the weekly readings within the Lectionary website. This has been made possible with the cooperation of the Consultation on Common Texts and Augsburg Fortress Press.

Comments: Please send your comments and questions about the new website and its offerings to the Vanderbilt Divinity Library staff.
