This talk will survey the technological framework for the Multitext project, and will especially emphasize a tiered design using stable reference schemes (CTS URNs for text passages, and identifiers with data namespaces for objects) in conjunction with defined service protocols (Canonical Text Services, or CTS, for text retrieval, and Collection services for structured information about objects such as manuscripts).
