. @OECD online library: how do i hate thee, let me count the ways... Oh how i hate that these publications which have been paid for by our governments are in a walled garden for subscribers. And to add insult to injury there is no search function in the library viewer
Hi Toby. I hadn't realised that you just launched a new front end to iLibrary. I wasn't being curmudgeonly about that
just sounding off at frustration at lack of search w/in OECD Reader. I'm surprised if no one has said this before: it's a huge lack of functionality for users

Also, as an aside Ive notice OECD start to use Issuu for some docs. Please don't expand this! The OECD Reader is positively lovable compared to Issuu!

As a rule, we don’t use Issuu and it’s not on our roadmap, (but I’m sure across the house some will!). We do routinely post to Google Books and Scribd to reach a broader audience.

New platform launched last week, much improved speed and search. Point taken about search in our Read versions, but new platform also opens door to web versions of some new titles. These might be easier to use esp on mobile devices.
