[Web4lib] Lack of discussion of Google CSE and Libraries

[Jorge Serrano Cobos]

Sure Bill, you´re right. That´s the pity. Wouldn´t have been great to have
these kind of feautres offered to anyone before, years ago?

And by governments instead of companies? And by great / national libraries
first?

Leading, not following...
