July 12, 2006


The Ockham Digital Library Service Registry (DLSR) has reached its 1.0
milestone, and is now available for public use and download. The DLSR is a
distributed registry of digital library services. Institutions can advertise
their internet-available digital library services, such as Z39.50, OAI-PMH,
OpenURL, etc., and discover other advertised services. The Ockham DLSR
provides a user-friendly web interface, as well as machine accessible
interfaces (SRU, OAI-PMH).

About the Ockham DLSR

The Ockham DLSR is funded by a grant from the NSF¹s National Science Digital

Digital Library Federation and Oregon State University Libraries.

Science Foundation to pursue this effort. The Digital Library Federation has
