ArchiveSphere Penn State Repository By Carolyn Cole
What is ArchiveSphere? ArchiveSphere is a Hydra Based web application specific to preserving and providing access to Penn State's archival collections.
The Differences Between ArchiveSphere and ScholarSphere Intended users – ScholarSphere is for all students, faculty and staff – ArchiveSphere is for the Archives Department Structure of the Data – ScholarSphere the file is king – ArchiveSphere the ingest is king Data Requirements – ArchiveSphere can have PII
What is the Same? The technology! Both are comprised of the same gems – hydra-head – sufia – hydra-collections – many additional dependencies
ArchiveSphere walkthrough The demo is not available to the general public. Only a small portion of PSU users have access to the system.
Future Work Additional preservation metadata work Arrangement and description tools Public access to arranged and sanitized collections Integration with other archival tools
