  1. Link Resolvers Explained Matt Goldner Fretwell-Downing, Inc. freedom by design

  2. Cooperation needed • NISO MetaSearch Intitiative • NISO/EDItEUR joint working party for exchange of serials subscription information • Vendor to Vendor relations

  3. NISO MetaSearch • Content providers, library management system vendors, federated search interface vendors • Workshop in Denver last May with six working groups.

  4. MetaSearch: Six groups • Meta Search Id • Access Management • Collection Descriptions • Search Options • Result Set Meta-Data • Statistics

  5. Record meta-data • Content providers send citation data in proprietary ways • Each must be parsed by separate rules • Same citation will link from one system but not another

  6. Record meta-data • User knows citation and wishes to fill in a form to find e-copy of article • Found we needed control over the form to get good links • First identify proper title level information

  7. Record meta-data The OpenURL which the Link Resolver builds can only be as good as the meta-data provided by the source.

  8. NISO/EDItEUR PAMS to Libraries Subgroup: Developing XML schema to standardize the format and content of information used to populate and localize the link resolver's knowledge base

  9. NISO/EDItEUR Pilot being done with Serials Solutions and III Will be important that serials information management services can output the schema and link resolvers can load it.

  10. Vendor to Vendor Relations • We are moving further into a interoperable world each year • Vendors have new awareness that changes in their systems effect customers in new ways • Standards help solve the problem • Free low of information is critical as vendors adopt new standards and implement new features
