This reader provides supplemental material for SIMS202 (Information Organization and Retrieval). The course textbooks are The Organization of Information by Arlene Taylor, Libraries Unlimited, 2000, and Modern Information Retrieval by Baeza-Yates and Ribeiro-Neto (Eds.), Addison Wesley, 1999.
This explanation of IR basics is just another way of covering the first few chapters of Modern Information Retrieval. It is more compact and more straightforward.
