Title:	IntegraL: An Effective Link-based Federated Search Infrastructure
Author(s):	Ho, Shuyuan Mary; Song, Min; Bieber, Michael; Koppel, Eric; Hamidullah, Vahid; Bokota, Pawel
Subject(s):	Digital library infrastructure Federated search
Abstract:	This research provides a new means for making digital library services interoperable. IntegraL facilitates a virtual restructuring of public web spaces and services, with authenticated digital libraries into broad ?federated? digital library spaces constructed from numerous interrelationships. Elements reside within a rich context of meta-information that helps users understand and work with them. This provides a ripe environment for organizations and individual people to develop small, specialized collections and services, which automatically become part of the federated space and accessible to those they can benefit. IntegraL extends the boundaries of how we think about and interact with digital libraries.
