EOS.Web provides access to other library systems using Version 3
of the Z39.50 protocol. The Z39.50 Client includes the ability for
library OPAC users to search other Z39.50 compliant library databases
using the EOS.Web OPAC.
Libraries can define host sites and databases available to their staff (in
Powersearch) and/or to the public (in OPAC) using a Z39.50 Setup function.
OPAC users can select any combination of Z39.50 sites and perform a single
search for materials at all of the selected sites. Record retrievals display
in a consolidated list with each separate database clearly identified.
