I learned a lot from that process. Most importantly, I learned the inner HTML must validate. (Whew!) If you wanted to include full-text indexing of epub files into your catalog -- which I would personally endorse -- then you could to the following things: > > * use the metadata coming from the ancillary epub files to create MARC records > * use the full text data come from the HTML to support full text indexing > > My creation tool is located on Github -- https://github.com/ericleasemorgan/epub/ The most important file is buried in the bin directory and called alex2epub.pl or build.pl. I know, theses files create epub files and not really index them, but in order to index them a person needs to know how they are built. > > Good luck.

That was not my intention though to index directly full text. Getting out a biblio record is my first step. But this could be a nice goal, provided that there is a kind of namespace for fulltext metadata in the ILS. -- Henri-Damien LAURENT
