It would be very helpful if Mana KB allowed libraries to share, search, and
import targets for copy cataloging. It could be added to Koha's Z39.50/SRU
servers administration page.

Search filters might include type of library, language, maybe a way to find a
target with specialized collections like medical or law. It might also be good
to have a way to handle targets that stop working - like a way to test them
prior to import and/or a way to flag them for review/removal.

There are various websites around where you can pick up new targets, but often
you have to trial and error your way to identify if the target works at all,
and if the target has the kinds of records you're seeking. Having those
categorized better and imported at the push of a button would save time and
effort.

With enough collaboration from the Koha community, this could also lead to a
much more robust centralized collection of targets than anything currently
available.
