Hi, all.

What do you all think about code that screenscapes (eg python's Beautiful
Soup) library opacs?
Is it ok to do?
Ok if it's throttled to a specific rate of hits per minute?
Ok, if throttled AND is a really big library system where the load might
not be relatively significant?

Not entirely unrelated, is there an API for the new University of
California Library Search system?
