NISO has launched a MetaSearch Initiative to set standards for cross-database searching. I can't tell from the web site whether NISO knows about, or has any use for, the existing OAI standard. If anyone learns the answer to this question, perhaps by attending the upcoming Strategy Workshop (Denver, May 7-8), please let me know.

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
