Your manuscript is both good and original; but the part that is good is not original, and the part that is original is not good.

Site Search

Site Search is a very powerful tool for finding what you want. It searches on all parts of the site that your level of access allows you to see. So for example, a search on the words 'ski chalet' might produce references to ski chalets in article snippets on members mini websites, ski chalet companies in the contacts database, photos of ski chalets, members who list ski chalets as an area of expertise, etc, etc. If you have the highest level of access (a guild member) it might even find that obscure reference buried deep in the accounts about how committee members frivolously used their expenses on champagne and hot tubs while 'researching' ski chalets... if only!

"Mr Safi Ullah was a tall thin man in white beard and white punjabi. He gave me tea and a copy of the headmaster’s report from 1948. As I left I pressed him to accept a 1000 taka note – a little less than £9. “For books,” I insisted. He took it under protest. “For books,” he agreed. I reflected afterwards that I had given him enough to keep a 10-year-old in school for a year."
