[Web4lib] Open Source Federated Searching Software

[Jeremy Frumkin]

Here at Oregon State University, we are developing a tool currently called
ŒLibraryFind¹. Current information on this project can be found at
http://dllab.library.oregonstate.edu/content/section/4/28/. As Ross stated
in his email, we are looking at how best to release this software in a
supportable way, and it is likely that we will release it as open source
software. We will be making some announcements in the near future about
LibraryFind and its availability to the world at large...
