Area Search

You can limit search results to a particular geographical area or region using the Area Search box.

Area searches can be used to specify broad regions of the state of Tasmania: the North, the North West (type as one word "Northwest") or the South, based on the telephone divisions of 03-63, 03-64 and 03-62 respectively. They can also be used for identifying services situated in or servicing more specific, localised areas.

Area information is frequently used in conjunction with other information (such as Subject, or Name details) to narrow a search down.


Examples

Following are examples of how you can limit searches using Area details.

If you wish to find all of the Unit Accommodation listed in the southern region of Tasmania you can search as follows:

Subject: Units
Area:      South

or, alternatively use the telephone region number for the south:

Subject: Units
Area:      62


To find the Unit Accommodation listed for the north west region of Tasmania you can search as follows:

Subject: Units
Area:      Northwest

Note that you need to use the word "northwest" without a space (this has been done to ensure that you can keep 'northwest' records out of searches for the 'north'). Alternatively use the telephone region number for the North West:

Subject: Units
Area:      64


If you wish to locate the community health centres that service the northern part of Tasmania, search as follows:

Subject: Community Health
Area:      North

or, alternatively

Subject: Community Health
Area:      63


For services such as Community Health centres that have specific localised areas that they service, you can limit your search to a particular area:

Subject: Community Health
Area:      Avoca

or

Subject: Community Health
Area:     Clarence



Search Hints

Subject: Advocacy
Area:      Statewide

or

Subject: Advocacy
Area:     South

rather than the more specific:

Subject: Advocacy
Area:     Taroona
