Abstract: In the digital world, library services need to be transformed to recognize that automation and machine-to-machine communication of information enables many advanced features. NRC CISTI, Canada's National Science Library, has addressed this challenge using Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). Using SOA based on Enterprise Architecture, we have modeled services provided by the catalogue, services related to document delivery, and advanced services to provide more open data access. We will present a completed model of some library business functions, discuss the challenges of implementing an SOA within the library technology environment, and present our vision of how library SOA is an important enabler for wider, easier, and more powerful access to science.
