  • External: Add virtual collection name and description to solr index searching.
  • External: Add virtual collection name as a facet in solr index.
  • Triplestore Model: Add triples for new virtual collection to private or public triple store.
Add to public when user marks Access as Public.  Add to private when user marks Access as Private.  What about when shared?  Are we opening up a security hole if we allow access to private triplestore using the Access Link.  Need to think about the implications of this more.
