Speaking of how to make data accessible, BHL needs some sort of search
within search results capability. This is especially important when
dealing with homonyms and hemihomonyms. Of course, better search
functions and consistent bibliographic format (e.g., the same name and
the same title is entered the same) would also be nice. Searching is,
of course, problematic due to the general difficulties of OCR and
related technologies, but perhaps it would be possible to program the
search engine to recognize and use indexes.
