We're using libraries like this to try to guess the language of a book based on title alone (in case no other information is readily available), and trigram-based algorithms get it wrong often enough for it to be noticeable. I will look into replacing our current library with this one, it seems better suited for the task at hand.

Yeah, language detection on short texts is quite complex. In my practice, N-grams doesn’t work well for them.
