Pilot Issues
• Integrate into existing workflow– database, XML/XSL, static & dynamic html,
navigation– map to OAIS SIP?– map structure?
• Interface changes– no contributor interface—batch load– seamless retrieval—assumptions about disseminator
interface• Integrate into id system(s)
– subscriber registration system– univ Kerb/LDAP infrastructure

Content Selection and Granularity
• CIAO– distinct documents: working papers, books, etc– site navigation not part of repository– documents added to site continuously
• CAHO– items are smaller: letters, images– items refer to each other– site nav & dynamic as above
• CERO– decompose complex multimedia “e-seminars”– preserve structural map via METS? IMS?
• Earthscape– similar to CIAO– and is Shib-enabled

Broader Library Issues
• Plan independent collection pilot– identify campus adopter communities– identify support staffing
• Policy development– submission: who, what– retention: forever? deletion?– preservation: feasibility by format, staffing– archival: procedures, authenticity/diplomatics,
