The CWCB's public documents are available through Laserfiche's WebLink, a centralized electronic document archival, retrieval and management system.  Documents are indexed and can be searched by index data or through a full-text search.  To search the entire library of information, use only the full-text search (close the Field search).  To search a specific area of interest, use the Field search and select a template.  The two types of searches can be used separately or in conjunction with one another.  If either the Text or Field search is not available, click the "Customize Search" dropdown to select the search desired. Documents retrieved can be downloaded as a PDF or printed.  Please note that large documents downloaded over a slow internet connection can take a considerable amount of time.

Use My WebLink to customize your Laserfiche search and search results.  Here you can determine the index data to return and the columnar order of the data .  To order a search's results on a particular index field, click the column header link to sort ascending or descending. 

For specifics and additional information, use Laserfiche Help.  The Help is very useful, providing detailed information on WebLink configuration, finding/retrieving documents, viewing documents and their associated text, and how to download files.  Or, visit the Frequently Asked Questions page.
