A copy of Search User Interfaces by Marti A. Hearst, Cambridge University Press, 2009, ISBN 978-0-521-11379-3, arrived in my mailbox today.
I am in the final stages of putting Part 2 of the ODF 1.2 standard together but I did peek inside long enough to find:
- The Design of Search User Interfaces
- The Evaluation of Search User Interfaces
- Models of the Information Seeking Process
- Query Specification
- Presentation of Search Results
- Query Reformulation
- Supporting the Search Process
- Integrating Navigation with Search
- Personalization with Search
- Information Visualization for Search Interfaces
- Information Visualization for Text Analysis
- Emerging Trends in Search Interfaces
There is a place for this volume and others like it on the shelves of every topic map interface designer.
I will be tracking the references in this volume so I can report on the latest work in the field.
Stay tuned for future updates as I work my way through this one. Promises to be a real interesting read.
(Update: The full text of this volume is freely available at: http://searchuserinterfaces.com/. I will post links to individual chapters in future commentary.)
