State of Digital Repository Systems- Abigail

The Task

Research and create a written report about:

Institutional Repositories the current landscape, software, best practices, comparison of software options…

Digital Preservation Landscape, software, best practices, etc.

Media Repositories Images, sound, video

Archives Management systems Records Management systems

My Work

My main goal – produce what FLO, its working groups, and member libraries would need in order to make informed decisions about Digital Repository choices.

Resources for further information Digital Powrr Bibliographies for further reading

60+ page report (available from FLO) Spreadsheet comparing different systems (also available from FLO)

Key Findings

Specialization Archives, IR, digital objects that are non-archival and non-scholarly

Purpose matters Because of specialization, it’s important to identify how a repository will be used in order

to get the most out of it

Small Academic Institutions Typically choose much different products than large institutions

Less focus on scholarly output More focus on interesting material that showcases what’s special about the institution

Product Identification Tools

Chart to identify differences between IR/Archives/Records Management/Curriculum Support Materials

Report to detail the landscape, describe my findings, etc.

Spreadsheet to allow for comparison of specific features

A simple spreadsheet…
