 Title: Ontology Registry Manager
 
-Registry management is a facility of the Ontology Manager that allows Stanbol __administrators__ to pre-configure sets of ontologies that Stanbol should load and store, or simply be aware of, __before__ they are included in a part of the ontology network (e.g. a scope or session). Via the registry manager, it is possible to configure whether these ontologies should be loaded immediately when Stanbol is initialized, or only when explicitly requested. The Ontology Registry Manager is essentially an ontology bookmarker with caching support. It is also possible to cache multiple versions of the same ontology if needed.

 ## Glossary
 
-* A __Library__ is a collection of references to ontologies.
+* A __Library__ is a collection of references to ontologies, which can be located anywhere on the Web. CMS administrators and knowledge managers can create a library by any criterion, e.g. a library of all _W3C ontologies_, a library of all the ontologies that describe a _social network_ (which can include [SIOC](http://sioc-project.org/ontology), [FOAF](http://xmlns.com/foaf/spec) etc.), a library of _ontology alignments_ (which includes ontologies that align DBPedia to Schema.org, GeoNames to DBPedia, or a custom product ontology to GoodRelations).
 * A __Registry__ is an RDF resource (i.e. an ontology itself) that describes one or more libraries. It is the physical object that has to be accessed to gain knowledge about libraries.

 ## Configuration
 
-Ontology registries (and, by extension, the libraries they reference) are configured by the Stanbol administrator via the Felix Web console.
+Ontology registries (and, by extension, the libraries they reference) are configured by the Stanbol administrator via the Felix Web console. _Note that the following links assume Stanbol to be deployed on http://localhost:8080_
 
-* Go to the [Felix console Configuration Manager](http://localhost:8080/system/console/configMgr) and select __Apache Stanbol Ontology Registry Manager__ (or follow this [direct link](http://localhost:8080/system/console/configMgr/org.apache.stanbol.ontologymanager.registry.impl.RegistryManagerImpl))
-* Under __Registry locations__ you can add or remove the physical URIs of ontology registries, i.e. RDF resources that contain knowledge about ontology libraries.
-* If you wish all the registry contents to be loaded altogether on startup, uncheck the __lazy ontology loading__ box.
-* You can select one __Caching policy__ between Centralised (default) and Distributed. In centralised caching, all the libraries that reference an ontology with the same URI will share the very same version of that ontology. In distributed caching, each library will reference its own version of each ontology. Centralised caching is generally recommended, as distributed caching allows multi-version ontology management, but occupies much more storage space, depending on the amount of ontologies in common.

+## Usage
+
+### Setup an Ontology Registry
+
+To create a Registry, you simply need to make an OWL ontology with certain types of axioms. See [Registry Language](registry/language.html) for examples on how to create a Registry and add Library instances to it. 
+
+Then upload the ontology on the Web and add it to the __Registry locations__ from the [Felix console Configuration](http://localhost:8080/system/console/configMgr/org.apache.stanbol.ontologymanager.registry.impl.RegistryManagerImpl).
+
+### Service Endpoints
+
+Because the configuration of registries is a task for __administrators__, there are no RESTful APIs for modifying ontology registries.
+
+- [__Libraries__](http://localhost:8080/ontonet/registry). If called from a Web browser, shows a list of known ontology libraries, and for each of them the caching state and the number of referenced ontologies. Supports only GET with no parameters, generates text/html only.
