One key topic on the agenda is Interoperability Policy with a dedicated session on Tuesday 6 July. The session was attended by around 70 people from across Europe and beyond interested in learning more about technical and archival collaboration; repositories in a grid curation environment, and policy and quality frameworks. The latter facet was presented by Giuseppina Vullo, University of Glasgow and co-ordinator of the DL.org project’s Working Group on Quality.

5th International Open Repositories Conference

The talk explained the different levels of policy interoperability – the higher business level that is instantiated at a lower process level, explaining why quality interoperability is a dynamic concepts with several subjective facets, how DL.org is investigating existing solutions while pinpointing new research that is needed, as well as defining a policy and quality framework. The approach adapted aims to be as pragmatic as possible so as to bring real value-add to professionals operating in the Digital Repository and Library space. The guidelines produced by the European project DRIVER with regard to digital preservation were highlighted as a key document for practitioners and policy makers. Another key document is the EC’s Interoperability Framework for eGovernment Services.
