Greetings: We just got back from a tour of the Getty and observed that they were using Lucene to index the data in TMS (actually in SQL Server). I was told that Boston MFA did this as well. I'd love to hear from other institutions who have developed their own front end to TMS and employed Lucene or other search engine to make TMS easy and intuitive to search.
