+ <para>
+ MasterKey Connect is a hosted connector, or gateway, service that exposes
+ whatever searchable resources you need. Since the service exposes all
+ resources using Z39.50 (or SRU), it is easy to set up Pazpar2 to use the
+ service. In particular, since all connectors expose basically the same core
+ behavior, it is a good use of Pazpar2's mechanism for managing default
+ behaviors across similar databases.

+ After installation of Pazpar2, the directory
+ <filename>/etc/pazpar2/settings/mkc</filename> (location may
+ vary depending on installation preferences) contains an example setup that
+ searches two different resources through a MasterKey Connect demo account.
+ The file mkc.xml contains default parameters that will work for all
+ MasterKey Connect resources (if you decide to become a customer of the
+ service, you will substitute your own account credentials for
+ the guest/guest). The other files contain specific information about
+ a couple of demonstration resources.

+ To play with the demo, just create a symlink from
+ <filename>/etc/pazpar2/services-enabled/default.xml</filename>
+ to <filename>/etc/pazpar2/services-available/mkc.xml</filename>.
+ And restart Pazpar2. You should now be able to search the two demo
+ resources using JSDemo or any user interface of your choice.
+ If you are interested in learning more about MasterKey Connect, or to
+ try out the service for free against your favorite online resource, just
