'''Search/Retrieve Web service''' ('''SRW''') is a [[web service]] for [[Search engine technology|search]] and [[information retrieval|retrieval]]. SRW provides a [[SOAP]] interface to queries, to augment the [[Uniform Resource Locator|URL]] interface provided by its companion protocol [[Search/Retrieve via URL]] (SRU). Queries in SRU and SRW are expressed using the [[Contextual Query Language]] (CQL). Standards for SRW, SRU, and CQL are promulgated by the United States [[Library of Congress]]. The SRW service and SRU protocol were both created by as part of the ZING (Z39.50 International: Next Generation) initiative as successors to the [[Z39.50]] protocol.
