The IEEE Electronic Library (IEL)provides a single source to almost a third of the world's current electrical engineering and computer science literature, granting unparalleled access to publications from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). IEL is available online through the IEEE XploreTM interface.
IEEE Xplore is a digital library providing access to the world's highest quality technical literature in electrical engineering, computer science, electronics, and related disciplines. IEEE Xplore contains full-text documents from IEEE journals, magazines, conference proceedings, and standards, in addition to books and educational courses. IEEE Xplore also includes content from select other publishers including the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), MIT Press, IBM, Nokia Bell Labs, VDE Verlag, Tsinghua University Press, American Geophysical Union (AGU), Oxford University Press (OUP), Beijing Institute of Aerospace Information (BIAI), now Publishers, River Publishers, Artech House, and Princeton University Press, among others.

IEEE instructions for using operators
It is possible to search only for images stored in the database by selecting Images (Beta) on the left side of the basic search. You can also search for captions by putting "imageCaption:" at the beginning of the search.
IEEE instructions for image search
the default order of operator precedence is:
Use Command Search for multiple operations.
Proximity operators are not supported in advanced search fields.
Use Browse for searching IEEE standards.
