Digital Repository Infrastructure Vision for European Research
The current situation for digital repositories
• More than 850 institutional repositories worldwide
– Many others: disciplinary, national, …
– Many types: Primary data, textual documents, learning materials, multimedia objects, Code etc.
– Documents: incl. pre-prints, postprints, technical papers, dissertations, theses
– Various repository software
• Many have the OAI-PMH implemented– small but relevant local specialties
• Some international registries exist– OpenDOAR, ROAR …
• Some search engines exist– BASE, OAIster, Google Scholar …
What is known about repositories?
Collaboration in repositories
• Very few mature national repository organisations/collaborations
• No trans-national repository organisation/collaboration
• Lack of data harmonization, orchestration of services
From the user point of view
[ talking about researchers ]
• Fragmented, obscure information landscape
• content can be (partly) searched and found
• quality and re-use differs from repository to repository
Need for Repository Infrastructure
• Organisational Networking– Forum for stakeholders
• Data harmonization – Cleaned and enriched „information space“– Offered for re-use by service providers
• Software orchestration– Open, scalable technical architecture– Re-use of existing services– Facilitate interactions between services

DRIVER Vision
• Build a pan-European Digital Repository Infrastructure
• and provide the European Hub in a Global Repository Network
for• any type of document, data and object,• of any format,• involving all European countries and • covering all academic disciplines
DRIVER now!
A Digital Repository Infrastructure Test-bed
• Textual documents • from 5 Countries (BE, FR,GE, NL,UK) • Distributed, high-quality content provision
• Distributed software deployment
• All open and re-usable

“Make it workable”
• Focus on existing repositories and services
• Focus on Institutional Repositories– Rapid progress over the last years– Inherent sustainability (e.g. libraries)– Adequate technical homogeneity (OAI-PMH)
• Focus on textual materials
• Focus on specific (test-bed) countries
Networking test-bed
• 5 countries– DRIVER exemplars – BE, DE, FR, NL, UK
• Different– Maturity– Policies– Technologies– …
The Netherlands
– National Federation– Aggregated Network– Outsourced– “Cream of Science”
>> Model for Distributed Network
Germany
– National Policies– Pro-active, individual
approach– High quality certificate
>> Model for quality assurance
Great Britain
– National federation– Advocacy focus– ROMEO IPR lookup– OpenDoar Registry
>> Model for advocacy / added value services
France
centralized
scheme
>> Model for centralized network
Belgium
– 2006 no national
federation– 13 Rectors signed
Berlin Declaration
>> Model for network construction
Networking test-bed
• 50+ “organized” repositories
• Is there a simple technical recipe for networkingthese repositories?

Problems remain
Building of aggregations is not trivial!
• An example: Full-text availability– Full-text not homogeneously offered
• metadata only, jump-off pages, authorization• full-text URLs in varying locations
Full-text guidelines
• Help to improve the repository landscape– Support of “sets”– Clear location of URL– Resource harvesting
• Studies say:– International retrieval– Guidelines
Next Steps
• Help 50+ repositories– Guidelines release– Help Desk (WP8)– …
• Help more repositories– “DRIVER countries”– other countries– …

• Disclaimer– Test version– Some interfaces for administrators only
• Repository Landscape – DEMO1– DEMO2

EU Knowledge Infrastructural Vision
• Build and maintain a sustainable European environment where content and functionality resources can be openly shared and integrated for use by any Application
• Sustainability means:- Maintainability, Scalability, Reusability
Service-based Repository Systems
• Environment and tools for building service-based Repository Systems– Sets of services running at different network sites,
possibly in multiple instances, interacting, dynamic, sharable, open
European Information Space
• Includes the DRIVER Repository System – Providing registered users with advanced
functionalities over a uniform European Information Space formed by aggregating multiple Repositories
• Repositories– Can join or leave the infrastructure at any time– Are dynamically/automatically aggregated to
populate and keep updated the DRIVER Information Space
Run-Time DRIVER Infrastructure
• European Information Space Repository System– Scalable, reusable, self-maintained

Stakeholder & Information Gap Analysis
• What are the benefits?
• How will this affect the peer review process?
• Where can I go for more information?
• Where can I go to discuss this issue?
Questions common to all Stakeholders
• Advocacy Materials• Attendance at conferences• Contacting professional groups• Resources, Support and Community Building
– DRIVER Support website– DRIVER Guideline Helpdesk– Mentor Service – DRIVER Wiki
Approach
DRIVER Support website www.driver-support.eu
• Information Dissemination– Infrastructure reports– Materials for re-use– Advocacy for stakeholders
• Support & Facilitate Communication– Point of contact with project & national contacts– Wiki– Mentor– News, Events and Links of interest
