DSpace is open-source software designed to assist colleges and universities in creating, managing, and maintaining digital repositories of information. There are currently about 125 schools using this software, but no tool existed that enabled searching across repositories instead of just within them.

Google and 17 partner schools have joined forces on a pilot program to enable searching among DSpace repositories.

In addition to MIT, the other 16 universities involved are: Australian National University, Cornell University, Cranfield University, European University Institute, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis, Minho University, the Ohio State University, University of Arizona, University of Calgary, University of Oregon, University of Parma, University of Rochester, University of Toronto, University of Washington, and University of Wisconsin.

In other news, Ask Jeeves's decision to participate in Macy's Thanksgiving day parade underscores the new era at the company.
