6 Possible application of OpenURL http://sfx.calstate.edu:9003/san marcos? id=doi:10.4161/auto.19496 Link Resolver (includes KB & other programs) http://dx.doi.org/10.4161/auto.19496 2. metadata 1. DOI Link resolver

7 OpenURL function Enables transfer of metadata – From an information resource – To a service component (link resolver) that can determine and provide context-sensitive services for the metadata

8 Types of OpenURL Sources A&I databases Online journals (references in articles) OPACs E-print archives Your local data repositories

9 OpenURL Format Base_URL – Server address of service component Content – Elements of the metadata or pointer to metadata in a public syntax – Information supporting delivery of services Example: http://sfx.aaa.edu/menu?genre=article&issn=1234-5678 &volume=12&issue=3&spage=1&epage=8&date=1998& aulast=Smith&aufirst=Paul

10 Base_URL Information Providers need to know which BASE_URL to insert into OpenURLs … in order to provide correct/local service menu/ links … – User Profiles – IP address identification – CookiePusher mechanism – Digital Certificates …?
