Using simple Perl and XSLT, I will demonstrate possible uses of the X-Server, including: Search interfaces; Reading lists; Authentication; Embedding ALEPH search results into a web page; Displaying user account details.&#13;
&#13;
Audience: Library systems staff; other staff may be interested in the examples of how we exploit the X-Server. The demonstrations are intended for any level of expertise, but the detail of how they are achieved will require some understanding of xml, xslt and Perl (or similar scripting languages).&#13;
&#13;
Version: 14.2 and above, with X-Server available&#13;
&#13;
Educational outcome: Participants should be aware of how to find out if they have the X-Server installed, licensed and running. Participants should understand the functions available via the X-Server. Participants will see how the X-Server functions can be used in a service environment.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">Aleph</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8601">2004-06-15</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Conference or Workshop Item</mods:genre></mets:xmlData></mets:mdWrap></mets:dmdSec><mets:amdSec ID="TMD_eprint_99"><mets:rightsMD ID="rights_eprint_99_mods"><mets:mdWrap MDTYPE="MODS"><mets:xmlData><mods:useAndReproduction>
