+      We at Index Data know that the records currently in this

+      compliant databases that exist.  Our aim is to make this
+      directory as comprehensive as possible.  To that end, we ask
+      your help.  If you are aware of a Z39.50 compliant target that
+      is not represented in our directory, please add it or send us
+      email with the details. Also, if you should happen to find an
+      error in our data or have additional information, please don't
