ARTstor XML Gateway

*ARTstor Releases XML Gateway for Metasearching*

As part of our continued effort to increase the convenience of
accessing the ARTstor Digital Library, we have developed an XML
gateway to facilitate the metasearching of ARTstor content. Many of
our participating institutions have implemented metasearch engines
that allow users to search multiple electronic resources using a
single interface and have requested that ARTstor facilitate similar
functionality. In response, ARTstor created an XML gateway that
provides both a stable, standardized method for querying the ARTstor
Digital Library, as well as a technique for retrieving search results
that can be easily utilized by a metasearch program. Please see the XML
Gateway section (http://www.artstor.org/info/about/xml_gateway.jsp) in our public website for more information.

The ARTstor XML Gateway is currently is production with Exlibris.
Additional partners not yet in production include WebFeat, Serials
Solutions� Central Search, and CSA. For a complete list of all our
current partners, please see the Metasearch Partner Contact
Information Page (http://www.artstor.org/info/about/xml_gateway_contact.jsp)located in the Technology section of our
website. If you know of an organization or vendor that we should
contact to facilitate metasearching, please contact us.
