First Issue of Google Librarian News

The first issue of Google's Librarian News has appeared. Conceived at the 2005 ALA conference in Chicago this will be a quarterly newsletter. The first issue has a feature article on how Google indexes the web and ranks search results. For many experienced searchers there is nothing new in the article and it does not go into any great detail. Nevertheless, a useful primer for students and those who are curious as to how Google works.
