I am a graduate student working on the WiderNet Project
(www.widernet.org) this semester. Our project develops a eGranary
Digital Library (www.egranary.org) to bring high quality information
to the developing world where there is no adequate internet
connection
by putting many websites into a hard drive.

We are now trying to transform our current catalog system into a
database-driven dynamic interface. I am working on collecting
metadata
resources for the new catalog database. We thought that Google API
might be used to help us harvesting metadata for the websites that
are
in our digital library collection. So I am writing to ask your advice
on this.


1. Do you think Google API can provide useful metadata for our
collection? If so, which specific API I should look at and how and
where can I get further information?


2. What might be a practical way to use Google API? is there a querry
amount limitation?


3. Are there other users that could possibly share their metadata
collected from google with us?


4. Are there other API resources except google that might be used for
our project?


Thank you and looking forward to your reply!
