Hi, I'd really like to see Hea improved, and link to that instead. It is our own, open, data. It is fully voluntary. We can make the registration process easier for libraries - possibly as part of the installer. It is too hidden now. An API to Hea that I could pull from to use the data on the website would be a nice thing, but not a requirement. I'm happy to simply link to it. We have this tool, we should encourage more strongly the use of it, instead of depending on a third party with non-open data.

While Marshall's directory is a valuable source with lots of interesting information, there are also known limits to it that have been discussed before.
I think it has merit that we as a community have a way for libraries to enlist themselves as users. So far we got Hea and a lot of cool entries on the wiki. I think for marketing purposes the wiki is a bit nicer, as it has the full names of the libraries and links to their catalogs. Why not link this page and maybe clean it up a bit? We could also offer to help libraries to add their entries there without having to register.

Hi All
I'm going to be a dissenting voice on this. (There's always one)
I much prefer hea because it has an open data license.
