Abstract

Caltech CODA currently exists as 15 individual archives. Fortunately, each is an OAI Data Provider which allows OAI Service Providers the opportunity to federate the content into a central database for searching or other end user services. Ideally though, Caltech Library will design a Union Catalog using the OAI-PMH. This central database would provide a local implementation of a federated search interface, using a modification of eprints.org software. The Catalog would also support other eprints.org features out of the box: RSS, Browse by Year, Author, Subject and act as a single CODA Data Provider for outside Service Providers, such as DP9, Celestial and Google Scholar.
