You can demo the authority headings search on LibLime's OPAC demo: http://opac.liblime.com What we're lacking is a really good MARC21 Authorities Records (the example you see above was generated from the data in that database rather than from an external authorities file). I've looked into purchasing authorities from the LOC but it's pretty expensive. If you have access to a good set of authorities and would like to test the capabilities of the system using them, let me know.
