Just a disclaimer - we use Google to search the manual on the Koha site and it doesn't quite work - we think it's the way the page URLs are generated and hope to resolve that sometime in the future. I'm going to assume that this custom search engine also won't quite find all that's in the manual, but I like the idea and have added a few more sites to the list (including the wiki).

Hi Lori
I think this is an interesting idea and I wonder if it could be added as an extra link in the Koha wiki. In effect it would be set up to index the contents of the Koha wiki as well as the content of each of the sites referred to in the Koha wiki. Someone of course would have to maintain it by adding new URLs added to the wiki.
I set up a Google custom search engine for Kete resources and tested the cross website search functionality.
Cheers,
Irma CALYX

Hi All,
I set up a Google custom search engine that searches a few key resources for training, configuration, and support resources related to Koha.
It's here: http://www.google.com/cse/home?cx=011786948441045791508:mhiovu8klb0&hl=en
Please let me know if a) you'd like to collaborate on improving this CSE and/or b) if you have a site that you think should be included in the search. This is my first stab at a CSE so it is very remedial but I have found it useful already.
So far I've included:
http://koha-community.org/documentation/3-2-manual/* http://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/* http://www.nexpresslibrary.org/training/* http://scls.typepad.com/link2koha/* http://lists.koha-community.org/pipermail/koha-devel/* http://www.myacpl.org/koha/*
