If a module has been placed in the repository (see below), there is no need to specify the location. The following example calls a function from the FunctX modulein the repository:

==Accessing Modules==
Library modules can be imported with the {{Code|import module}} statement,followed by a freely choosable prefix and the namespace of the target module.The specified location may be absolute or relative; in the latter case, it is resolvedagainst the location (i.e., ''static base URI'') of the calling module.Import module statements must be placed at the beginning of a module:
'''Main Module''' <code>hello-universe.xq</code>:
</pre>
If no location is supplied, modules will be looked up in the repository. Repository modules are stored in a directory named {{Code|BaseXRepo}} or the {{Code|repo}}directory, which resides in your [[Configuration#Home Directory|home directory]].

==Combined==
It makes sense to combine the advantages of XQuery and Java packages:
