-	Keeping track of state of grid jobs.
+	<para>Logging and Bookkeeping (L&amp;B) service keeps track of grid jobs.</para>
+
+	<para>The service receives job events
+	from various components of the Workload Management System, stores
+	them, and derives then the corresponding job states.</para>
+	
+	Job information is fed into LB through a~logging interface
+	(<link linkend="">legacy C and shell API</link>)
+	and it is not exposed as a web service yet.
+
+	The users may query job states or retrieve LB events either via the same C/C++
+	interface or via this web-service interface.
+
+	Besides querying for the job state actively the user may also register for
+	receiving notifications on particular job state changes.
+	This functionality is supported only in the legacy C/C++ interface.
