The DFG funded eco4r project partners are pleased to announce the eco4r hands-on workshop taking place as part of the SWIB 11 Conference (http://swib.org/swib11) at Hamburg. The workshop is scheduled for November 28 from 1pm to 7pm (reception starting at 12:15pm).
Both project partners, Bielefeld University Library and Library Service Center North Rhine-Westphalia, will present the practical results of their project. Within the last two years, the project has aimed to foster compound publications for exposure, reuse and archiving. Therefore, real life repository systems and the compound publications found therein are examined. The project aimed at exposing the various components of compound objects, among them data sheets, video instructions, software and more. The project’s data resource was taken from existing OPUS and Fedora repositories at Bielefeld University and hbz. We will present two plug-ins for OPUS and Fedora as the main practical outcome of the project. The plug-insenable repository content to be exposed in structured OAI ORE ResourceMaps, allow for their technical identification as well as re-use across heterogeneous information systems. Both plug-ins may be configured according to special demands and can be integrated within OPUS- and Fedora-driven applications. Moreover, we have built a prototype of a thematic overlay journal which dynamically aggregates content from repositories using OAI ORE. In principle, the deployment of OAI ORE Resource Maps allows the reuse of components within any networked environment. This applies for existing as well as new infrastructures and service providers approaching to data aggregation, such as Europeana, Deutsche DigitaleBibliothek, OA-Netzwerk or DRIVER. In this workshop, we will present the plug-ins as practically as possible. Therefore, we encourage all participants to install, configure and try their hands on the plug-in software on their laptops.
