Abstract

The Resource Discovery Network (RDN) has developed tools that allow educational institutions and other organizations to access and display the output from its Web services with their own branding and look-and-feel. This paper describes the need for such tools and the architectural approach to their development. A potential application of this approach to the incorporation of news feeds is also given.
