Re: [Handle-info] Value data lookup

In general this is not possible.  A particular provider of handles may provide such a lookup service separately.  Some organizations like to use an SQL backend to store handle records, which could allow for search of this kind.

I'm wondering if it's possible to do a reverse lookup/search through the value data to find the corresponding handle. An example scenario is given a URL value https://specialcollections.du.edu/object/codu:103050, I want to check whether or not if a public handle has been created for it before (in this case, http://hdl.handle.net/10176/codu:103050).
