Although the OPAC of these library automation packages provides advanced features of searching and retrieval of bibliographic records, none of them facilitate full\u2010text searching. Most of the available open\u2010source digital library software facilitates indexing and searching of full\u2010text documents in different formats. This paper makes an effort to enable full\u2010text search features in the widely used open\u2010source library automation package Koha, by integrating it with two open\u2010source digital library software packages, Greenstone Digital Library Software (GSDL) and Fedora Generic Search Service (FGSS), independently.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Design\/methodology\/approach<\/jats:title><jats:p>The implementation is done by making use of the Search and Retrieval by URL (SRU) feature available in Koha, GSDL and FGSS.
