  2. Institutional Context • The LLGC DAMS is safekeeping for Wales’ digital assets but, it is an element within a wider Digital Asset Management Solution, which is an element within the library’s integrated systems, which come together to: … preserve and give access to all kinds and forms of recorded knowledge, especially relating to Wales and the Welsh and other Celtic peoples, for the benefit of the public including those engaged in research and learning.

  3. Institutional Context: Development Aims • History of development with Fedora • Key Aims: • Add functionality to VITAL • Developments in line with communities (Fedora, Vital and other DAMS) • Skills and Resources • Cataloguers experience • Re-use skills • Single Search • Solution to adhere to Standards; METS, PREMIS, OAIS, TDR etc etc

  4. OAIS Overview

  5. Why OAIS? • Useful Overview • Standard and ‘tested’ • Overlaps with TDR (medium-term goal) • Granularity But... • Not overly restrictive (interpretation?). • Complex & inaccessible

  6. METS • METS as SIP, AIP and DIP • Contains Metadata from: • JHOVE/Automatically Extracted • RightsMD • DescriptiveMD (minimum required for locating) • PreservationMD • METS functions as the rules not the enforcement mechanism

  7. Object Storage Servers Electronic Deposit Rights Management Dissemination Layer Off-Air Recording … Error Check (Checksum) Virus Check Preservation Check (eg. DROID) Ingest Mechanisms FEDORA Object Digitisation Preservation Tasks (eg. Migration) Digital Archives
