With the influx of more devices where we can consume information, the volumes of information are multiplying faster than before. And it’s even more difficult to find the information we want or need. Interfaces vary and limit our ability to find information, but other factors are also involved. How can we take advantage of these factors and make finding information easier? Cheryl Landes has some ideas from her experiences of helping people find information for more than two decades. One may even surprise you: incorporating search with indexes! Join Cheryl in thinking about some new ways to approach finding information, and be prepared to share your own ideas.

During this webinar, you will learn about the following topics:

  • What is findability?
  • Why is findability important?
  • The problems and challenges of making information findable
  • How to improve findability
