This might have been covered before but how do people see koha working with open source federated search tools like pazpar2? The advanced search feature in koha is good but it.s not a true federated search. I.d like a koha search to return results from our web-based video library.

Koha can, in fact, integrate PazPar2, but it is limited to grouping results from within Koha itself. Extending it to support other search targets might not be horribly difficult, though. If one doesn't already exist, I suggest you open a bug on bugs.koha.org. -- Jesse Weaver
Mark, we have configured pazpar2 to query koha and some z3950 compliant electronic databases simultaneously. It is fairly straight forward. I understand that newer versions of pazpar2 will allow querying of SRU databases as well. Thanks, Savitra Sirohi Nucoft OSS Labs http://www.osslabs.biz 2009/9/28 Jesse <pianohacker@gmail.com>:
