English note Instantiated as the JISC IE Service Registry (IESR), the term "service registry" actually refers to two conceptually distinct, though complementary, network services: "collection description" and "service description". A collection description service provides machine-readable descriptions of the content of collections that are available as part of the JISC IE. The primary intention of the service is to allow portals, brokers and aggregators to automatically determine what collections are available to end-users of the JISC IE. A service description service provides detailed technical information in machine-readable form about JISC IE services. The primary intention of the service is to allow portals, brokers and aggregators to automatically determine how they should interact with content providers and other brokers and aggregators.

English definition Network services that store, manage and make available machine-readable descriptive metadata about the services offered within the JISC IE by other service components, and the content of collections made available via such services. New-Proposed
