Although we haven't yet created a detailed spec, UPEI has been
discussing an integration between Evergreen and Fedora, which is the
digital repository system we use. It would likely work in a similar
fashion to our Google Books tweak, which is a mash-up of sorts where
the Google Book content appears in a tab in the Evergreen OPAC when
applicable. It would be simple to do something similar for items in
the OPAC with a digital equivalent in Fedora, so that will probably
come first. The next step would be to determine how to best provide a
search interface that combines both the Evergreen bib data and the
Fedora metadata/fulltext content (indexed in Lucene). Having said
that, any of the emerging Solr/Lucene based OPAC interfaces would
handle this with ease.

Hi all
I have uestion regarding features of Evergreen.
Does it support uploading of content of book?
Evergreen is meant to handle metadata about a book, not the full text
of an item. However, if you are not looking for full text indexing,
you can place URLs to the content in MARC records ( following the
MARC21/AACR2 standards
http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd856.html ) and Evergreen will
create links to this content.
