Summary of contents:

FAQ section on the project website and ‘manage deposits’ section of the service website.

Comments:

There’s a significant amount of overlap between the project and service websites for the Depot, and the repository itself, so I’ve just listed both websites here. The FAQ section is the main area where supporting documentation is provided on the project website along with the ‘manage deposits’ section of the repository service website.

Output Name: Output – Life2 – Final Report – Section 5

Title: British Library Newspapers Case Study
Number of pages or page numbers: pages 75-99

Date Released: 22/08/08

URI for Output: http://eprints.ucl.ac.uk/11758/1/11758.pdf

Summary of contents: Interesting output looking at the issues of legal deposit for newspapers, comparing analogue to digital collections.  Looks at the Burney Collection (static collection) and legal deposit of newspapers (dynamic).  Talks about ingest issues from Microfilm (page 87).  It carries out a comparison of the process, including differences in preserving digital vs analogue collections.  It’s conclusion on page 99 is relevant:

The aim of this Case Study was to see whether the lifecycle cost of analogue objects could be
identified and mapped against that of digital collections and this has been done. It was not a
Case Study to determine which method is cheaper or more expensive, although a by-product
of the research is that it is possible to see the results of the costs side by side.
The only clarification that the LIFE team think is important to make is that the creation cost
for digital material has had a major impact on the total lifecycle cost of a digital entity. For
analogue materials, because of the legal deposit situation, no creation costs are counted, but
the team knows that there are of course creation costs incurred in other areas outside the
institutional responsibility outlined here.
So for final costing purposes, the team feels that the most realistic comparison would be the
digital object cost minus creation cost versus the equivalent analogue object cost

A comparison of the costs:

Digital = £3.60

Analogue = £4.60

Per item.

Output – The Depot – UK Repository Junction

Title: UK Repository Junction

Date Released: June 2007

URI for Output: http://depot.edina.ac.uk/junction.html

Summary of contents:

‘UK Repository Junction’ is a re-direct service to ensure that content that comes within the remit of an existing institutional repository is correctly placed.

Additional information:

The service is essentially part of the functioning of the Depot service quality repository (separately listed as an output).

Comments:

On testing the redirection using the example of the University of Bath which has it’s own repository, the junction worked correctly.

Output – CURVE – Reuse Strategy

Title: Reuse Strategy

Pages: all

Summary of contents:
The document provides a thorough outline of the design use and management of IPeLOs (interprofessional e-learning objects).
It includes a section on overarching Reuse Principles, and outline workflows and checklists of critical questions for the supply, manage, and consume processes.

The strategy is for a particular type of formal learning object created specifically for the purpose of reusable sharing.
“IPeLOs are designed and constructed to facilitate reuse. This means they must be, to some extent, generalised. They do not contain information specific to a location, organisation, instructor, time or course. Any inbuilt bias to a region or culture is explicit. They do not contain hyperlinks to URLs which are restricted to particular groups of authorised users.”p4

Comments:
The document provides a researched strategy for the design and creation of formal commissioned LO’s for sharing and reuse.

The success or failure of the strategy is outwith the scope of the document, but it should be clear that this is not intended to be a generic strategy for sharing learning materials nor can it be easily transferred to most extant learning materials.
