- A technical and community development with enhanced networks, methodologies and technical processes.
- Bringing together disparate sources, and various formats: but ‘not YASABE’ (Yet Another Search and Browse Environment)
-Uniting Library and archival holdings within existing metadata frameworks.
-Creating seamless modes for intake and comparison of data.
-Supporting transnational and comparative approaches across disciplines, locations and modalities
