David, The short answer is that your application needs to map keys and values from the OpenURL query to your application's specific query interface. DSpace supports OpenURL requests. You can find some of the relevant code at: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/dspace-xmlui/src/main/java/org/dspace/app/xmlui/cocoon/OpenURLReader.java

However, we want to implement OpenURL hooks on our open access literature database and I can not find where to begin. SafetyLit is a free service of San Diego State University in cooperation with the World Health Organization. We already provide embedded metadata in both COinS and unAPI formats to allow its capture by Mendeley, Papers, Zotero, etc. Over the past few months, I have emailed or talked with many people and read everything I can get my hands on about this but I'm clearly not finding the right people or information sources. Please help me to find references to examples of the code that is required on the literature database server that will enable library link resolvers to recognize the SafetyLit.org metadata and allow appropriate linking to full text. SafetyLit.org receives more than 65,000 unique (non-robot) visitors and the database responds to almost 500,000 search queries every week. The most frequently requested improvement is to add link resolver capacity. I hope that code4lib users will be able to help. Best regards, David David W.
