The Australian Partnership for Sustainable Repositories (APSR) has a broad portfolio of system development and educational activities to support online collections. The priority areas of activity for 2007 include:
• Tools, services, and infrastructure for digital collections
• Repository interoperability
• E-research facilitation
• Research reporting
This project briefing will report on the progress of a wide range of activities in these areas including:
• The Fez+Fedora digital repository system
• The APSR Repository Interoperability Framework
• The FieldHelper software for enriching the metadata of field work data
• The Automated Obsolescence Notification System (AONS)
• The Australian e-Research Sustainability Survey (AERES)
The initialization of some new projects in 2007 will also be flagged, such as the Online Research Collections Australia (ORCA) Registry and Support Network, and the Benchmark Statistics (BEST) project.
