A part of the Metasearch Infrastructure Project is "CDL MetaLib Access through XML (MAX)". The purpose of the MAX project is to provide a standardized method of accessing ExLibris's MetaLib metasearching product. MAX is being designed to plug into the CDL Common Framework.
Much of the work being done on CDL's MAX is parallel to the work that needs to be done in Sakaibrary – implementing a MetaLib X-server version of the Repository OSID.
See the attached CDL MetaLib Access Through XML (MAX), version 0.4 document describing the CDL MAX framework.
