Abstract
In 1994, within the framework of IFLA’s Universal Dataflow and Telecommunications Core Programme, Liv A. Holm—lecturer at the Norwegian School of Library and Information Science and long-time member of ISO Working Group 4—published Models for Open System Protocol Development: A Technical Report. This sixth volume in the UDT Series emerged from a pressing need to clarify the architecture, roles, and interplay of the newly formalized international standards for Search and Retrieve (SR) and Interlibrary Loan (ILL) protocols, designed specifically for the information community. Drawing from the expertise of technical contributors across Europe and North America, the report addresses not only the technical mechanics of these protocols, but also broader questions of interoperability, protocol layering, data formats, and emerging services such as document delivery and resource control. It stands as a reference document for system designers and policy-makers navigating the transition to open system communication in libraries.
