Noesis is one of the first Google Co-Op creations I have seen that is more than a “let’s try this out” website. What it does is lets you search for authoritative philosophical resources.
If you don’t quite understand why Google Co-Op is a big deal for libraries, educational institutions, and research in general, you really should look into it. Find out what people are doing with it, because these adaptations of Google may very well become more common than the generic keyword search of everything on the web that our patrons use today.
