Mission of CORE

Aggregate all open access content distributed across different systems worldwide, enrich this content and provide access to it through a set of services …

[http://core.ac.uk/about#mission]

Let’s talk numbers

What is all about?

● Provides machine-to-machine interface for the development of new services.

● Enables the development of new applications utilising the open access content including those based on text-

mining.

● Provide business intelligence, support quality management and also management reporting for Repository

managers. (Check metadata quality. Check OAI-PMH interface status. Check and validate against specific

standards and how particular fields are populated/used by similar or different organisations. Benchmark for full text

versus metadata).

● Provide business intelligence for standards development for infrastructure providers.

● Working with OpenAIRE to provide OpenAIRE compliant records for UK repositories. (via RIOXX)

● Acts as a cache for federated search via library systems or other national library service providers and support

cross searching
