Dear All,

I would like to have in-depth information on Open Access Initiative Protocol for Meta Harvesting (OAI-PMH) and its implementation in Digital Library Software We, as information professionals must be knowing about its interoperability framework and functionality which is used to communicate/exchange the bibliographic metadata. Although I know its implementation guidelines in a library software but it would be very beneficial if someone having experience in the same can guide me.

Thanks & Regards,
