Federated Search on AfricanLII
This guide is to help users find related content either in the AU materials on AfricanLII.
How to conduct Federated Search
Go to https://africanlii.org/
Enter search terms or a document name in the search bar, and click Search
The documents that match your search are shown including the respective jurisdiction the documents belong in.
Narrow the results by using the filters on the left to pinpoint what you’re looking for.
Use the Sort by option to sort results by relevance or date.
Focus results with filters
Here’s an example. A search for "refugees "returns over 1840 documents.
Apply multiple filters to refine your search. Let’s look for Gazettes with the term refugees from 2023 in South Africa.
Federated search makes it easy to find related information from various jurisdictions and regional bodies.
