This is the fourth part in a series of articles about standards for accessing content from document sources, particularly in the context of federated search. You can access the first three parts of the series from the following links:
- Content access basics - Part I - screen scraping
- Content access basics - Part II - XML
- Content access basics - Part III - OpenSearch
