Inhaltsangabe

Information retrieval (IR) is a complex human activity supported by sophisticated systems. Information science has contributed much to the design and evaluation of previous generations of IR system development and to our general understanding of how such systems should be designed and yet, due to the increasing success and diversity of IR systems, many recent textbooks concentrate on IR systems themselves and ignore the human side of searching for information. This book is the first text to provide an information science perspective on IR.

Unique in its scope, the book covers the whole spectrum of information retrieval, including:

history and background

information behaviour and seeking

task-based information searching and retrieval

approaches to investigating information interaction and

behaviour

information representation

access models

evaluation

interfaces for IR

interactive techniques

web retrieval, ranking and personalization

recommendation, collaboration and social search

multimedia: interfaces and access.

Readership: Senior undergraduates and masters' level students of all information and library studies courses and practising LIS professionals who need to better appreciate how IR systems are designed, implemented and evaluated.
