<br>
we are happy to announce that BASE (<a href="http://www.base-search.net" target="_blank">www.base-search.net</a>) has reached another<br>
milestone with integrating the 2000th repository.<br>
<br>
This means that we have now successfully reduced the backlog of already<br>
harvested repositories, which were not yet indexed in BASE, caused by the<br>
migration from Fast to Lucene/Solr earlier this year.<br>
<br>
<br>
About BASE:<br>
<br>
BASE is a multi-disciplinary search engine for academically<br>
relevant OAI-Sources which was created and developed by Bielefeld University<br>
Library. BASE is one of the biggest OAI-Search-Engines and includes some 31<br>
million documents originating from more than 2.000 repository servers.<br>
