What does our search engine have to offer?
edu-sharing helps you combine internal and external sources of content and stored data in order to search them using a user-friendly search engine.
The edu-sharing OER repository offers its users a simple search mode and a configurable, advanced faceted search.
Here you can use the fields of our easily customizable metadata catalogs as search criteria.

connected to multiple sources
Our search performs well – no matter if you are using 10 or 10,000 catalog values per criterion. With the help of search options such as school type, age group or subject your users quickly find the perfect content for their course.
Benefit from our interface technologies (Elixir, OAI-PMH ...) and metadata mapping capabilities and our experience in the integration of sources.
Thanks to the edu-sharing plug-in technology, the edu-sharing OER search can be integrated in the material options for your learning environment and as a function of the text editor. Content, such as videos, and tools like Etherpad can either be linked as a resource in the course or embedded in text-fields.
Sounds Interesting? Test drive our search engine!
Try our search engine yourself. In our demo environment we connected YouTube and the Deutsche Digitale Bibliothek (The Digital Library of Germany) as external sources of content.
