Zusammenfassung:

The protocol specified by the Open Archives Initiative (OAI) defines an easy-to-implement interface for harvesting metadata records. In this paper, we discuss the current usage of the OAI specification regarding the metadata, and its consequences for a search and browse service provider. Based on empirical evidence from gathering 29 archives, we highlight the problems arising from different ways of using the OAI specification and discuss possible solutions.
