> 'Many institutions grant access to their metadata repositories
> via the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Har-
> vesting (OAI-PMH). However, this protocol has two signif-
> cant drawbacks: it does not make its resources accessible via
> dereferencable URIs, and it provides only restricted means
> of selective access to metadata. The OAI2LOD Server han-
> dles these shortcomings by republishing metadata originat-
> ing from an OAI-PMH endpoint according to the principles
> of Linked Data. As the ongoing OAI-ORE speci?cation pro-
> cess shows, these principles are gaining growing importance
> also in the digital libraries domain.'
