The Documentation Library Service package provides functions that allow users to search, navigate, and read HTML documents that are registered with the library service. This is the library service for reading and searching AIX online documentation such as the AIX Library and application documents such as the Web-based System Manager's extended help documents.

The Documentation Library Service, including corequisite software, requires approximately 35 megabytes of disk space to support a single language, and 70 megabytes of disk space if you install support for all languages.
On client systems, you must also install a forms-capable web browser. On server systems, cgi-compliant web server software must also be installed, configured, and started. Additional configuration of AIX to make the library service work properly with the browser and webserver may be required if it was not factory configured. See the Documentation Library Service chapters in the AIX 5L Version 5.1 Installation Guide or AIX 5L Version 5.1 System User's Guide: Operating System and Devices.
