We calculate the local contributions to the Shannon entropy and excess entropy and use these information theoretic measures as quantitative probes of the order arising from quenched disorder in the diluted Ising antiferromagnet on a triangular lattice. When one sublattice is sufficiently diluted, the system undergoes a temperature-driven phase transition, with the other two sublattices developing magnetizations of equal magnitude and opposite sign as the system is cooled.(1) The diluted sublattice has no net magnetization but exhibits spin glass ordering.
