If you just type the OAI address into a web browser you get an error message in return. An application such as the Open Archives Initiative - Repository Explorer is needed to send queries in the correct format and interpret the XML sent back. A simple example is the query for the repository to identity itself <http://dl.acs.org.au/index.php/index/oai?verb=Identify>. The reply is:
The request <http://dl.acs.org.au/index.php/index/oai?verb=ListMetadataFormats> returns what formats the data is available in:
