Desired or planned features.

Parsing of formatted references from an entry screen. Use http://wing.comp.nus.edu.sg/parsCit/ package. Very interesting!

Rochester “Getting Users Fulltext” style code to skip right to the full text, skipping content-provider metadata pages.
Google Books search to complement the OCA and Gutenberg searches I’ve got--may or may not be possible with no google books api. Screen scrape? Umich oai-pmh records?
connection to OCLC Identities
xISBN/thingISBN use. (Some thought is required in how to integrate this while avoiding false positives). Bowker ISSN service for metadata enhancement. OCLC xISSN? Integrate preceding/succeeding title information from OPAC or xISSN?
Journal covers from Ulrich's via screen-scraping.
Connotea integration
Fetch ToC from LC. Screen scrape, I guess? Or z3950? Any other content from LC?

Fix Umlaut Referent to more easily allow multiple authors. Architectural change neccessary to get a lot of this stuff working right.

"Cited by" service. Scopus via screen scraping? (scopus javascript api? http://www.scopus.com/scsearchapi/ ) ISI Web of Science is too hard to even screen scrape the interface is such a mess, but Scopus looks do-able. Google scholar?

Enhance metadata to have full metadata for a refworks etc export. Using: CrossRef? Metalib? Anything else?

A general purpose responsecache. Schema: Date, service/source, key. Use for caching image urls, ToC urls from LC, etc.

Change background to use Spawn plugin instead of manual threading. Investigating using spawn with fork instead of thread (terry reese on limited pool of forks).

Crazy idea for an abstract interface/architecture to support querrying web service apis that require client side javascript, like Google Books and Scopus.

Integrate my various local document delivery services into menu of options when full text isn’t available. More generally, a clear architecture for providing localized doc delivery services in addition to a single ILL link.
