由XML和Web Service引发的信息资源整合革命

The Revolution of Integrating Information Recourse Result from XML and Web Service

当前图书馆馆藏书刊目录数据库多采用MARC元数据,并以ISO2709标准进行编码,而馆藏其它数据库多采用不同的元数据和元数据编码格式。并非是元数据不统一才导致图书馆难以整合不同数据库信息资源,根本原因在于这些元数据的编码格式不统一,接口不规范。文章从元数据编码角度指出,在不同信息系统中,只有采用新一代的XML和Web Service信息标准,才能实现跨资源类型、跨载体格式和跨系统的多种元数据整合,从而充分实现信息资源的共享共建和整合效应。

Summary ： Currently most of the databases about catalogue in library conform to MARC metadata with ISO2709. But for other resources in library often conform to different metadata and encoding. In library, it is hard to integrate those different databases, this is because of the different encoding of metadata and the unstandardized interface but not the different element of metadata. Based on metadata encoding, the article points out that in different information systems, adopting the standard of the new generation of XML and Web service, the inter - type, inter - format or inter - systems resources in library can be integrated. And the library can fully realize the effect of co - constructing, sharing and integrate the information resources.
