From the Paper:

"The requirements of the Hybrid Library 'Headline' includes that the software be of a modular nature and that a uniform interface is utilized which is accessible from anywhere at any time along with a single point of authentication. The user metadata module is required for allowing metadata to be provided by existing sources and the system must know where the user is in order to make the user's resources available to them. Additionally the metadata that is associated with collection level resources are to be contained within a relational database that enables ease of up-dating and elimination of efforts being duplicated."
