Abstract
An information processing apparatus displays, for each group, images that are divided into groups so that each group contains at least one of the images. The apparatus includes an image-data storing unit that stores image data of the images, a group-attribute-information storing unit that stores attribute information of the groups, a display controlling unit that controls processing for displaying the images for each group, a search-key extracting unit that extracts a search key when the display controlling unit issues an instruction for starting the processing for displaying the images for each group, and a searching unit that searches for the groups associated with the extracted search key. The display controlling unit controls display of a library of the groups so that the groups associated with the search key and found by the searching unit are displayed at a top side in the library.
