The question that can be answered at the beginning of this section is as follows: relevance, due to practical and theoretical considerations as well as the requirements of searching—and not just the organization of information—became a fundamental concept in information science, and in this shift, searching was completed using modern information technology.
In the provided context, relevance has been the fundamental concept in relation to searching and information retrieval and still is.
