[Web4lib] NISO Issues Best Practices for Designing Web Services in the Library Context

[Drew, Bill]

 This is a very important development.  The actual document is at:
http://www.niso.org/standards/resources/rp-2006-01.pdf.  It is pretty
bad writing and a disservice to their readers for Library Journal to no
include the URL of the report in the article.   Even NISO makes it
difficult to find. -- Bill Drew.

The National Information Standards Organization's (NISO) Web Services
and Practices working group has issued NISO RP 2006-01, Best Practices
for Designing Web Services in the Library Context, covering HTTP
caching, filtering user input, reuse of output formats, security, and
more, and describes output formats used in web services such as DTD,
XML, schema, Relax, NG, and DSD.
