Description
Selecting and migrating content into an institutional repository can be a confusing, time-consuming, and costly process, especially for an mid-size academic institution with no prior experience in the field. The presentation will first focus on the factors that shaped the UAH M. Louis Salmon Library’s IR selection process, including the rationale for selecting our first real IR, Digital Commons. The second part of the presentation will focus on the process of migrating university materials from other systems, with emphasis on Omeka and CONTENTdm. This will include selecting materials for migration as well as technical details about the migration process itself.
