Ugh - that looks very messy. I am very anti-exposed URL's in the catalog
- it tends to only confuse patrons since they don't know where to link.
For example - it's much nicer to just have to click on READ FULL-TEXT
IN NETLIBRARY, then some long URL...

We are testing out Google's CSE and it has the option to "categorize"
links based on patterns inside the URLs.
For example: you can tell google to tag URLs with a ".com" as
"Commercial". Or URLs with a "/2008/" in them as "Date: 2008" (for
example, archived Blog posts have this sort of format).
Which, got me to think... what should we expose in the URLs that link
to
a record in an NGC?
* The title?
* The author?
* The year-published?
* Subject headings?
* LCC cluster (like the HILCC; for example items between RC321 - RC
429.99 might get auto-tagged internally as "Medicine > Neurology"
(HILCC id #1336), but what would the URL look like? Would the URL have
the internal HILCC (1336) or something like
"[HILCC]Medicine|Neurology"
For example, such a URL might look like this:
http://mycatalog.net/biblio/type=book/subject=hilcc:1336|medicine|neurology/title=Principles-of-neural-science/year=2001
So, should permalinks in an NGC look like?
