Digital Repository
an ideal way to capture, preserve, and disseminate the intellectual output of a university, consortium, or discipline-specific organization
CBSOR,Indian Statistical Institute 30th March 07, ISI,Kokata
3
Prerequisites for forming a consortium for successful resource sharing
Common domain interests Financial resources – consortium is
not about cost shaving only! Technology Manpower Policy and Governance support

Challenges in accessing Consortia Resources
The end user is forced to learn and interactwith as many interfaces as products availableand this leads to stress and confusion. It results in very low usage of the subscribed resources.

5
Some Solutions
Linking and Serial Management Service by other publishers
Examples: PubMed's LinkOut, Silverplatter Silverlinker, ISI Web of Science, OCLC Electronic Collections Online,
Cambridge Scientific, EBSCO
CBSOR,Indian Statistical Institute 30th March 07, ISI,Kokata
6
Limitations
Offer links only to content from publishers with which these companies have agreements, or that a library accesses within a specific service
CBSOR,Indian Statistical Institute 30th March 07, ISI,Kokata
7
Others
Cross-Ref -- A publishing industry initiative to enable article linkages across participating publishers
Federated searching -- Multiple vendor implementations, e.g., Ex Libris SFX and Endeavor Encompass Metadata harvesting -- being developed through the Open Archives Initiative
Serials Management -- TDNet and SerialsSolutions: fulltext list generation, URL generation to load MARC-like
catalog records into local catalog

OpenURL for accessing Consortia
Resources
OpenURL is a Mechanism for transporting metadata and
identifiers Describes a publication (Reference
Resources) for context sensitive linking Designed to support mediated linking from
information resources to library services Works with ‘Link Resolver System’ Facilitate seamless access to the referenced
resource
CBSOR,Indian Statistical Institute 30th March 07, ISI,Kokata
9
Terminology
OpenURL – A NISO standard (Z39.88), by which web links (URLs) are created containing metadata, allowing the linking directly to reference resources
Source – A citation database where an image or link appears; this link is an openURL that points to a link resolver.
Targets – The items listed in the results window: the full text dbs, Catalog, Ask-a-Librarian, Google.
CBSOR,Indian Statistical Institute 30th March 07, ISI,Kokata
10
Terminology
Link Resolver – Software that interprets an OpenURL and creates links to targets.
Base URL – The URL of a link resolver server.
Knowledgebase – The database containing all the library’s holdings.

Benefits of OpenURL linking
For the librarian: Central administration of links Local control over what types of links
are offered and to where they resolve Optimizes use of licensed resources

12
Benefits of OpenURL linking
For the user Desktop delivery of full text when
available electronically Expands the research horizons Consistency and accuracy of links

13
OSS tools for OpenURL
CUFTS (knowledge base) GODOT (Link Resolver) and dbWiz (Federated Search Engine)
CBSOR,Indian Statistical Institute 30th March 07, ISI,Kokata
14
CUFTS: open source serial Management
CUFTS is online knowledgebase of full-text journal collections.
Provides libraries to develop their sites of searchable serials databases
MARC records for library catalogue
Directs to article OpenURL link resolving, and ERM tools.
CBSOR,Indian Statistical Institute 30th March 07, ISI,Kokata
15
Function
CUFTS serves as knowledge base and contains a variety of resource types including Journal collections and databases called as “Global Resource”
From the Global Resources libraries can select and activate their “Local Resources”
CBSOR,Indian Statistical Institute 30th March 07, ISI,Kokata
16
GODOT (Link Resolver)
It is a Link Resolver Software Provides direct Full-text Links from
CUFTS knowledge base Holdings in the Catalogue or in other
location Interlibrary Holdings Locator and
Requesting

17
dbWiz – Federated Search Engine
dbWiz is an Open source federated search engine
Allows to search multiple databases, websites, catalogues, and other online resources from a single interface
Presents the result in an integrated list

Need for DL support to Consortium
Digital assets requires tools to organize the content according to library’s own preferences
Integration of digital collections with institutional portals and e-learning systems
Preservation of Digital Object
CBSOR,Indian Statistical Institute 30th March 07, ISI,Kokata
20
DL support features
Gives permanence to digital assets of libraries
Full-text searching Personalized email notification of newly
published content Browsing by date or author or keywords Authorized Access to documents/collection Usage statistics
CBSOR,Indian Statistical Institute 30th March 07, ISI,Kokata
21
DL support features
OAI compliant Data exporting as XML for Federated
Searching
CBSOR,Indian Statistical Institute 30th March 07, ISI,Kokata
22
Closer view to DL
Organize the digital collection into type of resources, enabling:
Categorization of documents according to
Papers & publication Educational resources Special collection

23
Administrative Supports to Consortium
Ingesting Metadata editing Collection management
CBSOR,Indian Statistical Institute 30th March 07, ISI,Kokata
24
Administrative Support
Ingesting: handles the loading of objects into the Repository.
Metadata Editing: Editing of descriptive or other object metadata (for example, technical or preservation metadata)
Collection Management: organizing objects into structured collections that facilitate end-user navigation.
