swMATH not only provides access to an extensive database of information on mathematical software, but also includes a systematic linking of software packages with relevant mathematical publications.
an Open Source Probabilistic Information Retrieval library, a highly adaptable toolkit to allow developers to easily add advanced indexing and search facilities to their own applications.
EzDL is a tool to provide Easy Access to Digital Libraries. It is a Java based application that allows users to search several related libraries at once, presents a combined result view and offers a number of possibilities to work with and organize results. At the moment the program focuses on search for scientific literature, but other types of digital libraries and documents will be supported in the future.
This page displays the number of entries (articles) in PubMed (Medline) published every year, that conform to search strategy (such as a phrase) you enter.

Open Source Discovery Portal Camp
Join the development teams from VuFind and Blacklight at PALINET, November 6, 2008, for day of discussion and sharing. We hope to examine difficult issues in developing discovery systems, such as:
*
ILS Connectivity
*
Authority Control
*
Data Importing
*
User Interface Issues
*
Federated Search
*
Virtual shelf list
*
De-dupping
*
Usage Recording and Reporting

The time has come for libraries, too, to negotiate for rights to index full text
By Jonathan Rochkind -- Library Journal, 2/15/2007
The ability to search and receive results in more than one database through a single interface—or metasearch—is something many of our users want. Google Scholar—the search engine of specifically scholarly content—and library metasearch products like Ex Libris's MetaLib, Serials Solution's Central Search, WebFeat, and products based on MuseGlobal used by both academic and public libraries—are all a means of providing this functionality. At the university where I work, without very much local advertising, Google Scholar has become the largest single source of links to our link resolver product, illustrating how hungry users are for metasearch.
The Open Text Mining Interface (OTMI) is an initiative from Nature Publishing Group (NPG). It aims to enable scholarly publishers, among others, to disclose their full text for indexing and text-mining purposes but without giving it away in a form that is

Federated Searching
Federated searching is a strategy for simultaneously searching a number of online resources and pooling the results into one interfiled result set. As part of the RaPIDS (Rapid Prototyping of Intuitive Discovery at Stanford) initiative, SULAIR is experimenting with federated searching as a means of giving scholars a broad view of disparate resources held across many different, isolated systems. For this effort, SULAIR is working with Deep Web Technologies. The company’s federated searching system, Explorit Research Accelerator, is currently powering a number of science, technology and government search portals, including National Digital Library for Agriculture (NDLA), Science.gov, Scitopia, and WorldWideScience.org. SULAIR has developed with Deep Web Technologies three demonstrations of federated searching within the Stanford environment:
WorldCat is the world's largest network of library content and services. WorldCat libraries are dedicated to providing access to their resources on the Web, where most people start their search for information.
Do you have dozens of PDF files from your favorite scientific articles scattered on your harddrive? Do you also try to desperately organize them by renaming and archiving them in folders? But like the piles of printed articles on your desk, you can't keep up with all the new papers you download, and despite all your efforts it has become impossible to find that one article.
Search for articles using the built in search engines, retrieve and archive PDFs, and read and study them all from within Papers, your personal library of Science.

When I interned at Google last summer after getting my MSI degree, I worked on projects for the Book Search and Google Scholar teams. I didn’t know it at the time, but in completing my research over the course of the summer, I would become the resident expert on how universities were approaching Google Scholar as a research tool and how they were implementing Scholar on their library websites. Now working at an academic library, I seized a recent opportunity to sit down with Anurag Acharya, Google Scholar’s founding engineer, to delve a little deeper into how Scholar features are developed and prioritized, what Scholar’s scope and aims are, and where the product is headed.

I'm a graduate library student, and I use Google Scholar all the time. My school subscribes to literally hundreds on on-line journals and databases, and it's not possible to search across all those sources in one sweep. Google Scholar gives me a list of r
