Hi all, I was wondering if any of you went through one of the following initiatives for certifying your DSpace repository.
TRAC Project (Center for Research Libraries) http://www.crl.edu/content.asp?l1=13&l2=58&l3=162&l4=91 DINI Certification (German organization for networked information) http://edoc.hu-berlin.de/series/dini-schriften/2006-3-en/PDF/3-en.pdf (Driver guidelines are based on this) DRAMBORA (Digital Repository Audit Method Based on Risk Assessment) Toolkit http://www.repositoryaudit.eu NESTOR certification http://www.langzeitarchivierung.de/downloads/mat/nestor_mat_08-eng.pdf If you did, a few questions: - How much effort was required from your side ? - How much effort was required from the side of the certification authority (if there was one) ? Were there any costs involved ? - Did your DSpace installation comply with the requirements of the certification right away, or did you have to make modifications//changes ? - If you had to modify your installation for compliance, was this because of your own customizations or decisions you made in your metadata profiles, or because of some DSpace-specific properties ? - Do you have any advice or comments for people who are looking at certification ? Is it worth the effort//costs ? with best regards, Bram Luyten @mire - http://www.atmire.com Technologielaan 9 - 3001 Heverlee - Belgium 533 2nd Street - Encinitas, CA 92024 - USA http://www.togather.eu - Before getting together, get t...@ther
