How can CERIF facilitate access to institutional archives?Matthew Mascord

euroCRIS Seminar 2004, Brussels


Outline of Talk

1. What is an institutional archive?

2. What is CERIF?

3. How can CERIF help?

4. Case study: CCLRC

5. Conclusion


1. What is an institutional archive?

• Index, store (in a variety of formats) & disseminate intellectual output

• Publications, data sets, patents, technical reports, theses etc

• Free access (BOAI), increase impact, framework for preservation (OAIS), resource discovery


1. CCLRC's interest

• Demonstrating quality of science

• Widen public awareness & understanding of science

• Digital preservation (DCC, National Data Archives)


• Find a paper

• Find a supervisor for a PhD

• Exploit cutting edge science

• Re-run experiments or analysis

• Find collaborators

• Find a suitable instrument for an experiment

• Find contact people for press interviews

• Locate funding sources

4. Case study: CCLRC• Open Access Institutional archive with ~18000

records accessible on Web: http://epubs.cclrc.ac.uk

• Interface to CrossRef (DOIs)

• Multi-entity data model mapped onto Simple & Qualified Dublin Core for OAI-PMH

• Working to integrate with CERIF, CCLRC’s Corporate Data Repository & CCLRC Data Portal

• CCLRC’s record of scientific output


4. Case study: CCLRC• CERIF2000 has only title, reference & URI for

Result_Publication

• Needed to extend Result_Publication & Result_Patent to hold more metadata

• Asserson & Jeffery 2002, 2004 proposed CERIF extension

• Glue linking CERIF to a more formal DC

4. Case study: CCLRC• Also considered FRBR, ONIX & Qualified DC

• HEP community preprint heavily: need version control

• FRBR introduces 4 level model: work, expression, manifestation item

• Also multiple manifestations (e.g. PDF, DOC, PS)

4. Case study: CCLRC• Some other extensions to formalised DC:

– Structured values for bibliographicCitation e.g. volume, first page etc

– Sequence numbers for creators/contributors

– Linking to events & event series e.g. conferences & workshops

– Serials (journals, report series) as works

– Structured/free text where unable to resolve orgunits/projects/people
