This study proposes an integration model of information retrieval systems using a standard distributed object computing technology in digital library environments. In the proposed integration model called DDIRIORB, the middleware broker based on CORBA is designed for the transparent access to the distributed information repositories and the consistent view of the information retrieval by applying 239.50 protocol. The DDIRIORB is an adaptable open architecture that allows for the following benefits : bibliographic and abstract information retrieval simultaneously, interoperability between application servers and clients, consistent view of search results, complexity reduction of integration interfaces, and easy to use.
