Code4Lib Journal article on OAI-ORE
Posted by: jaf In: Digital Persistence|OAI-ORE|code4lib|digital libraries|digital preservation
The latest issue of the Code4Lib Journal has an excellent article by David Tarrant et al detailing the use of OAI-ORE to enable the transferrence of repository objects from one repository solution to another. This, IMHO, is the first write-up of a compelling use case for OAI-ORE; the ability to migrate repository collections from one repository solution to another is critical in the long-term for most institutions, and having a standard mechanism for doing so would be a huge win. This is a must-read.
