Abstract

The Keystone Library (TKL) is a web application framework that eases the construction of library web portals and other web sites with semi-structured content. It is used to build literature web portals which are highly user customizable, and literature search engines based on the Z39.50 or SRW protocol.

TKL consists of many modules and pluggable handlers used to add specialized functionality. Among the available modules are OAI harvesters and web harvesters. The existing handlers are specialized to integrate Z39.50 queries, SOAP queries, SQL queries and much more into the TKL framework. Custom designed pluggable components can be freely added.

The Keystone Library is based on XML and XSLT technologies. It currently uses Sablotron as processing engine, and PHP as application glue language. Helper utilities are written in Perl and Tcl.

This documentation describes the installation and programming interfaces of The Keystone Library (TKL).
