The SchemaBibex group is having some of this discussion, and I think the
'appropriate copy' problem is one the library community can potentially bring
to the table. There are no guarantees, and it could be we end up with yet
another set of standards/guidelines/practices that the wider
Owen,
Good points well made - I don't think that any one commercial service has yet
solved all the issues involved in these questions of appropriate copy, but I
would caution that libraries and publishers need to work together on extending
existing broad-based standards into these areas, if

The only difference between COinS and a full OpenURL is the addition of a link
