View record or search about bibserver HOT 2 CLOSED

this is all quite new, and yes I built it from the list you previously used on an example page. Hopefully we will get more feedback from openbiblio-dev about other suitable searches.

This just takes a target search service and a value to search, and redirects to the results. This could run as a separate service, and we could potentially maintain a growing list of such services. For now though, it is probably easier to maintain that list manually and update the functionality.

Where a DOI is available, you can do the google scholar search and get the exact match. Where not, you can choose to search by the title or any other value. So this is already possible. Do you mean you would not want the option of searching on the title if the DOI is present?

If the search value were a text box a user would have to copy / paste or rewrite the value they wished to search for. Is that better than choosing a relevant value from a list? How about choosing a relevant value and being able to edit it? I think that would be quite nice, but I would not want to reduce it to only a text box - that seems like more hassle to the user.

I'm closing this as I cannot determine a specific feature request of bug.

@pitman: it may be useful to keep lengthy or high-level discussion in an etherpad (e.g. http://openbiblio.okfnpad.org/bibserver or to put items into user stories) and keep these tickets focused on specific bugs or tasks.
