Questions and Notes on IntraLibrary Presentation

Q: You mentioned a connection to WebCT which of course then brings up the link to Blackboard, which begs the question will there be a Blackboard connector?
A: We are not intending to build a Blackboard connector but we are already working with one of our customers who is going to take the WebCT one and develop it into a Blackboard connector.
Q: Is WebCT all open source?
A: Yes, and it’s actually a WebCT open source SRU client, so you can search anything that is an SRU target with it.
