7 >ANSI/NISO Z39.50 (ISO 23950)</a>
9 <a href="http://www.loc.gov/sru"
11 targets known to us. The tables show the name, address, port,
12 reliability info, search attributes and other data useful
13 for achieving interoperability.
16 We at Index Data know that the records currently in this
17 directory represent only a fraction of the Z39.50/SRU/SRW
18 compliant databases that exist. Our aim is to make this
19 directory as comprehensive as possible. To that end, we ask
20 your help. If you are aware of a Z39.50 compliant target that
21 is not represented in our directory, please add it or send us
22 email with the details. Also, if you should happen to find an
23 error in our data or have additional information, please don't
24 hesitate to contact us so that we can make the target
25 information as accurate and comprehensive as possible.
28 <b>DISCLAIMERS</b>: Most of the systems listed are generally
29 made available without charge for testing or general use, but
30 many require authorization, either for access or additional
31 functionality. The Target Directory does not contain
32 authentication information, and it is not meant to be a
33 substitute for authentication/authorization procedures many
34 targets require. In addition, the information presented here
35 should not be considered indicative either of the functionality
36 of the native interface of the target, or of the functionality
37 of any given software system or installation. This directory is
38 made available for evaluation purposes only. Although we try to
39 make it as accurate as we can, Index Data assumes no
40 responsibility or warranty for its correctness.
