  20. 20. Open Source components used in PEPRS Abstract Perl API supporting search and retrieval. Based on YAZ toolkit. ZOOM http://zoom.z3950.org/api/ Z39.50 support in Perl Each preservation agency supplies custom data at the moment, so scripts will be created for each data source. ISSN data is in MARC21 format and will be processed using MARC::Record CPAN package Custom Perl and CPAN packages including MARC::Record http://search.cpan.org/~gmcharlt/MARC-Record-2.0.2/ Normalisation Data files will be collected using FTP and HTTP.
