Abstract

The Open Archives Initiative (OAI) has gained momentum since eprints.org was released in 2000. An alternative to eprints.org is the recently released DSpace, the open source software developed at MIT. The paper will trace the history and development of DSpace initiatives, such as the joint project between MIT and University of Cambridge. It also discusses the impact and benefits of repositories for research institutions and libraries.

VALA2000 Session 4 Arthur Paper 44.50 KB

Abstract

During 1998 and 1999 the University of Melbourne Library evaluated four interfaces for managing electronic journal subscriptions and access. These are OCLC’s ECO, SwetsNet, Ebsco Online and Blackwell’s Electronic Journal Navigator. A small working group of librarians comprised the core of the trial. A set of defined criteria for evaluating the interfaces was used. The paper will report on the experiences of the evaluation and the conclusions reached.

Abstract

E-Research refers to large-scale, distributed, information-intensive forms of inquiry conducted collaboratively between institutions, and intra- and inter-nationally. The paper details the strategies that the Information Division (ID) is implementing to support eresearch and information management within the University. The culture at the University of Melbourne emphasises a client-focused approach where the ID staff partner with academic departments and business units to assemble suitable project teams to translate the vision into technical solutions. The paper will explore ID initiatives which support e-research and information management using new technologies which emphasise interoperability and flexibility.
