The SRU package provides a framework for working with the Search and
|
|
Retrieval by URL (SRU) protocol developed by the Library of Congress. SRU
|
|
defines a web service for searching databases containing metadata and
|
|
objects. SRU often goes under the name SRW which is a SOAP version of the
|
|
protocol. You can think of SRU as a RESTful version of SRW, since all the
|
|
requests are simple URLs instead of XML documents being sent via some sort
|
|
of transport layer.
