drupalib A place for library drupallers to hang out

This simple module for Drupal 4.7 allows users to search a remote database (like your OPAC) from your Drupal site. All you need to know is the GET URL that the remote database uses, and what you want to call the block. You administer these two items via the standard Drupal "settings" menu. Here are detailed usage instructions:

1. Unzip remote_module.module.gz and upload it into your Drupal's "modules" directory.
2. Go to administer > settings > remote_search and enter the URL you want to search and the title of the search block.
3. Go to administer > blocks and activate/configure the block.
