Search Results 

  • If there is a single match, a detailed entry will be returned.
  • If there are multiple matches, a summary table will be returned. Click "details" for the detailed entry for the selected person.
  • If no other criteria are present, a departmental/organizational search will result in a phone list format that can be copied to common office tools (e.g., Word, Excel) for sorting and further formatting. Please note: this function has been temporarily disabled.

Search Hints

  • Name order is important in the simple search: first-name last-name or last name only.
  • Do not include punctuation, such as a comma, in the search box.
  • Nicknames are not included in the directory at this time. If the person uses their nickname as their e-mail address, a search of nickname-lastname in  the  E-mail Alias field might be successful.
  • If you know only some characters of a name, you may use the wildcard character '*' to complete the search parameter. E.g., 'Chris*' will match any name starting with 'Chris' such as Christopher, Christian, Christine, Christina. Nicknames are not included in the directory at this time.
  • You may search on any field or combination of fields. The wildcard character "*" may be used in any field
  • Searching by department or org code results in a phone list format that can be copied to common office tools for sorting and further formatting
  •  Please note: this function has been temporarily disabled.

Comparison with Ph Searches

  • Only given names are included in the directory at this time. Ph held many nicknames, but that information is not included in the LDAP white pages at this time.
  • The Ph name search order was not specific. The LDAP white pages search allows you to specify the first (given) name and last name fields.
  • Ph had been extended to include "special Ph" entries for departments and organizations that requested them. Those addresses are not available in the LDAP white pages at this time.
