SPARCRequest Now Live with CTSA Faceted Search

Dear SPARC Users,

We are proud to announce that SPARCRequest is now live with CTSA Faceted Search (http://labs.cd2h.org/search/facetSearch.jsp).

The CTSA Faceted Search instance is a project to explore multi-faceted search across multiple federated sources, both internal to CD2H and the CTSA Consortium and more broadly across the entire informatics community. As part of the SPARC Open Source ontology sub-committee, we have been working with the CTSAsearch group to improve the SPARC API and establish this integration.

We are looking forward to further include ontology structure for CTSA services and contribute to this project, as well as having more SPARC open source partners to be integrated into the CTSA Faceted Search.

Please contact us if you have any questions about this project.

-The SPARC Team
