Hacking the Database: Understanding Search Engines for Better Results

  • Tuesday October 13, 4:30pm- 5:00pm, Information Commons 120

The operations of search engines can seem mysterious.  Why do certain results get highlighted over others?  Why do things that appear in one search engine not appear in another?  Exploring some of the key features of all search algorithms, this workshop will cover how to better use search interfaces from the ubiquitous Google to the new Library Search.  Ben Aldred (baldred@luc.edu).
