abstract = {Most books on information-seeking neglect the human side to focus solely on the technical aspects of retrieval systems. This book is the first to provide an information science perspective on information retrieval, with a focus on user behavior and needs. Beginning with the history of information retrieval, coverage goes on to consider behavioral models and interactive techniques as well as the design, implementation and evaluation of information retrieval interfaces. This comprehensive book will be the go-to for LIS students and professionals hoping to better appreciate and utilize information retrieval systems, theories, and practices.
