You’ll find a similiar listing on my blog at http://www.intranetfocus.com/blog/entry.php?entry=59. This links to two excellent and fairly technical books on search by Croft et al, and Manning et al.

I’ve written two books on search, Making Search Work (published by Facet Publishing in 2007) and Successful Enterprise Search Management with Stephen Arnold as my co-author (www.galatea.co.uk).

The research reports from the Real Story Group are also very useful http://www.realstorygroup.com
