Update on LCCN Permalinks Post

One of the comments on a recent post about LCCN permalinks asked about links to the LC/NACO authority file, to which Ann Della Porta replied about plans.

I should have mentioned in the original post that here at OCLC Research we have long offered a Web service that will show individual authority records (e.g. http://errol.oclc.org/laf/n79-32879.html).  Unfortunately we've been using a pattern for LCCNs different from LC's in their permalinks.  We should probably update our service to support LC's style.

The service is actually layered on top of OAI-PMH, which in turn in layered on top of SRU, so adding additional patterns is mostly a matter of adding new terms in an index.
