CL-XML

A modular validating XML parser for Common Lisp, it main components are:

• The XML module "implements a conformant, namespace-aware, validating XML processor which instantiates an Info-Model compatible document model. It also supports event-based parsing according to both a grammar-based and a SAX-equivalent event interface."
• The XPath module "processes XML path expressions to generate automata which may be combined with a document, or a document fragment to generate the referenced nodes."
• The XQuery module "processes XML Query expressions to generate automata which may be combined with a document, or an element, to generate the denoted projection."
• The XMLQueryDataModel module provides a programming interface to generate and manipulate document models.

Despite getting on in years and being completely unsupported the CL-XML package has some worthwhile features that you may take a look at, for full functionality you will most probably have to adjust it to your CL environment, while it was written with portability in mind the toolkit did need some tweaking for each CL system as it grew larger.
