Draft 2, 2005-03-16
This document describes the NorZIG profile for SRW/SRU (Search and Retrieve Web Service and Search and Retrieve URL Service, respectively). The profile is based on the NorZIG Z39.50 Profile Version 2.
The purpose of the document is to promote interoperability between Norwegian SRW and SRU services. The intended audience is implementers of such services in Norway.
NorZIG is an acronym for the Norwegian Z39.50 Interest Group.
The unique identifier for this document is: http://www.norzig.no/srw/norzig_profile.html
NorZIG-compliant SRW and SRU servers must meet SRW's basic requirements for CQL. In addition, the NorZIG CQL Requirements must be met.
NorZIG-compliant SRW and SRU servers must support the full NorZIG Context Set.
The recommended prefix for the NorZIG context set is norzig, and its unique identifier is http://www.norzig.no/cql/norzig/1.0/.
NorZIG CQL queries may therefore begin with the following prefix-mapping:
>norzig="http://www.norzig.no/cql/norzig/1.0/"
In addition to the NorZIG context set, NorZIG-compliant SRW and SRU servers must support CQL queries for several indexes from other context sets. These context sets are:
| Context set | Short name | Identifier |
|---|---|---|
| Bath | bath | http://zing.z3950.org/cql/bath/2.0/ |
| Default | cql | info:srw/cql-context-set/1/dc-v1.1 |
| Dublin Core | dc | info:srw/cql-context-set/1/cql-v1.1 |
| Record metadata | rec | info:srw/cql-context-set/2/rec-1.0 |
The following indexes must be supported:
| Index name | Context set | Access point1 | Bib-1 Use attribute2 |

NorZIG-compliant SRW and SRU servers must support at least the following record schemas:
| Short name | Identifier | Description |
|---|---|---|
| dc | info:srw/schema/1/dc-v1.1 | The Dublin Core schema |
| marcxml | info:srw/schema/1/marcxml-v1.1 | The MarcXML schema |
