Find trusted answers. Faster.

Finds and opens documents. Type a few keywords or a phrase, and we list the matching PDFs, pages, and courses so you can open the source. This is a deep search: it reads inside every PDF, so a result can take you straight to the passage where the answer lives, not just the file.

Wrap words in double quotes to require them together, in that order. Searching “informed consent” returns only documents that contain that exact phrase, a fast way to narrow a broad topic to the passages using your precise wording. Anything outside the quotes still searches normally.

Gives a short, written answer. Ask a full question the way you would ask a colleague. We read the most relevant Virginia Municipal League sources and write a brief, cited answer with links. Use it when you want a quick answer plus the sources behind it. Informational only, not legal advice.

Relevance lists the best matches first. Most recent keeps the most relevant results on top and orders those by date, so where documents carry a date (legislative updates, CE events, newsletters and bulletins) you see the newest first. This is a new feature we’re still refining, so on some topics an older but highly relevant document may still lead.

Each result is rated on how closely it matched your search, compared with the top result: a label (Strong, Good, or Fair) and a heat bar that runs cool blue for a lighter match up to red for the strongest. A quick cue for where the best answers are.

Tick the box on any result to select it, then use Copy links or Copy as email to send the sources to a member or colleague.
