I am a new user and I tried searching in the archive. It works well with a simple keyword search, but I was wondering if it is set up to accept Boolean inquries. I tried some AND searches, but I don’t think they worked. In other words, can I construct more complicated searches in the Archive search form?

Not yet but support for boolean searches in the archive will come.
