[Editors] Update to the MIT Search Engine

[Suzana Lisanti]

Dear MIT Editors,

We're happy to announce an update to the MIT Google search engine to 
a new version which is 2 - 3 times faster than the current 
installation.  In order to provide this faster and more reliable 
search service, MIT's Google search engine will be updated during the 
weekend of May 23, 2009.

The latest Google version is already being used by the MIT home page 
search, and we have extensively tested the new version on 
departmental custom searches. We expect MIT web publishers will not 
have to make changes to their existing search forms and custom 
results style sheets to take advantage of the benefits of this Google 
upgrade.

You can test your current search forms and results stylesheets before 
the transition by following the simple steps at:

To ensure a seamless transition, the Google team is available to 
offer MIT web publishers testing support and to answer your questions 
about the Google search.  

If you have any questions, please write to IS&T's search engine team 
at <mailto:google at mit.edu>google at mit.edu.

Thank you,

Suzana Lisanti
