# Navigate documents

vLex contains many different types of documents. As a result, there are different search features you can use. In this and subsequent articles, you will see some good practices to be mindful of when navigating the service.

## Searching for specific types of documents

#### Option 1:

In [**Advanced search**](/getting-started/quick-start-guide/advanced-search.md)**,** choose the type of content you would like to explore.

At the bottom of the page, there will be filters to narrow down your query further.

#### Option 2:

Go to [**Browse**](/getting-started/quick-start-guide/use-browse.md) and select the filters to search across your preferred type of document.
