Woah, I can see I've got a lot of sifting to do! On top of the excellent resources Nick and Joan provided, I've also run across the ResourceSync project, by the Open Archives Initiative <http://www.openarchives.org/rs/toc>.
This inspires hope, but I have to admit, it's also a little frustrating to find so many different options that don't necessarily seem interoperable. This is actually exactly the problem that I'm trying to address with my aforementioned "Open Social Sector" idea. If we were to take all of the energy that these independent projects represent and throw it behind a single implementation, we'd be decades ahead of where we are now!
