a-z.lu allows you to sort the list of results according to your preferences: by relevance, publication date, title or author.


In a-z.lu, the results are sorted by default by their relevance – calculated by the system based on various parameters – to indicate whether the results match your query. To calculate the relevance of a result, the system analyses the terms of your query and their occurrences in the meta data and the full text (an occurrence found in a title would, for example, have more weighting than an occurrence found in full texts).
