OpenURL Referrer Description
These days, there are many web sites that include citations to scholarly works. It would be useful to producers of such sites to have their citations be "clickable", taking the reader directly to the fulltext of the source being cited. Of course, these sources may be copyright-protected, and only available on the web via subscription-based services. However, you may be able to access these resources through your local library's web site if it subscribes to such a service. This can be accomplished thanks to OpenURL, a powerful technology that packages bibilographic information into a format that many internet services can understand.
