Coleman Sanjay, DLIST, http://dlist.sir.arizona.edu/ is an OAI-PMH compliant repository for LIS materials that are openly available. OISter is more along the portal lines that I think you're inquiring about - it currently harvests metadata from DLIST and more than 200 other OAI repositories in all disciplines. One stop searching of all these repositories of freely-held (open access) is also available through OAIster. URL: http://oaister.umdl.umich.edu/o/oaister/. To see the complete list of institutions from which OAIster harvests, visit, http://oaister.umdl.umich.edu/o/oaister/viewcolls.html. Best, Anita Coleman

Dear Professionals,

Firstly, I am thankful to LIS-Forum team and all participant professionals for discussions on great profession.

I have a query in regard of OAI (Open Access Initiative). Any one tell me or explain about OAI or any model/portal of OAI which is providing the Open Access effectively.

I look forward to your valuable advise.

With kind regards.
