Abstract
This document describes Dienst, a protocol for communication with distributed digital library servers. This protocol provides an object-oriented interface to a document model, which allows a user to access complete documents or named sub-parts. It also supports multiple formats for documents. Dienst protocol messages are embedded within HTTP, the protocol used over the World Wide Web. Thus, anyone using a Web browser (e.g. Mosaic, Cello) has access to the services provided by Dienst.
