11 How GUF Uses Other Services Web services API to OpenURL resolver (and its knowledgebase) Print journal holdings database OCLC xISBN service

12 Navigating Results Issue: Users must “navigate results that are not organized, precise or comprehensive” How to solve this? –FRBR-like metadata –Provide results that are grouped by their relationships –Offer ability to manipulate result set
