[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Evergreen access via Google?

[Donald Butterworth]

Hi everyone,

I was asked to toss these questions out and get some perspectives.

"What would it take to make the Evergreen catalog holdings available to
generic search engines like Google, Bing, Yahoo and DuckDuckGo?" "Even if
it is doable, is it a good idea?"

The motivation behind these questions is a perception that the first
attempt many students make to do research is through a general web search.

Anybody have a comment?

Don
