VCU Search

Search is often the first and only way many people attempt to find specific nuggets of information within the vast warehouse of data available. With VCU Search, a hosted Google search appliance, we can:

  • highlight specific websites to better address specific search terms
  • add new sites to our search results quickly
  • reindex old sites that have been updated
  • provide search results from a specific collection of websites for individual departments
In essence, with VCU Search, we hope to make search better for both our users and our developers. Within this knowledge base section, we hope to provide tools and tips for both groups to improve how we search for information on the web at VCU.
