Visions
for the Future
A strategic alliance with Amazon is perhaps
only the first of many
outreach possibilities
Amazon
to support DC and investigate CQL and SRU!
With small, well defined steps up the ladder,
we hope that implementations
will extend far beyond the 'book' focus Web 2.0
needs SRU, not sixteen different search protocols
Library
2.0 (cough) needs SRU.
European Library portal demonstrates the
approach's power
SRU needs input from the rest of the
world Business models are important (eg Amazon vs
Google)
