About
4
What is HathiTrust Universal Digital Library Common Goal Single Entity but Partnership of Many Libraries
5
Goals Reliable and comprehensive archive of materials converted from print…co-owned Ensure the long-term preservation of content Improve access …to meet the needs of the co- owning institutions Coordinate shared storage strategies “public good” …sustaining the historical record Simultaneously …centralized …open

Background
7
History Michigan Digitization Project 2004 “…U of M shall have the right to use the U of M Digital Copy, in whole or in part at U of M's sole discretion, as part of services offered in cooperation with partner research libraries such as the institutions in the Digital Library Federation…”
8
History Collective Agreement with CIC Announced in June 2007 – U of Michigan and U of Wisconsin Projects already underway
9
History In 2007, CIC agreed to establish a shared digital repository University of Michigan and Indiana University initial leaders of this effort

Partnership & Resources
23
Partnership & Resources (1) Funded for a initial 5 years with base-funding from partners Budget – separately held within UMich budget system, managed by the Executive Committee Cost Model – Per GB cost of storage per year with a one-time fee on new content to build a capital fund Review in 3 rd yr of each 5 yr period
24
Partnership & Resources (2) Staff/Expertise – highly integrated – Project managers, IT and communications staff, copyright experts, administrators (UM, Indiana and UC taking the lead) Working groups UM recently hired a Digital Preservation Librarian Shared development space
25
e-Commerce Print on Demand Content Ingest Transformation Validation Content Access PageTurner Collection Builder Large-scale Search Bibliographic Catalog Research Center APIs Quality Assurance Quality Review Content Certification User Services Usability User support (helpdesk) Outreach Project website Monthly newsletter Papers and presentations Communication with potential partners Surveys, general inquiries Repository evaluation and audit (e.g., DRAMBORA, TRAC) Legal Risk management (use of materials) Partner agreements Advocacy Governance Budget, Finances Decision-making Policy Planning Enterprise Management Communication and Coordination with partner institutions Project management Repository Administration Hardware configuration and maintenance Web and application server configuration and maintenance Security Permissions Logging Repository Administration Data management (content storage, backup, integrity checks, deletion) Hardware selection and replacement Content and Metadata specifications Disaster Recovery Processes for ensuring content integrity Rights Management Copyright determination Copyright review Copyright information management (database) Rightsholder permissions Bibliographic Data Management Entity description (record-level) Object identification (item-level) Data availability Collection Development Digital Expansion beyond books and journals (born-digital, images and maps, audio) Selection of content (for non- Google volume ingest and pilots projects) Print Cloud Library (effect of digital on print) Financial contributions of partners HathiTrust Functional Framework
26
Partnership & Resources (3) Toward a Cloud Library – CLIR, Mellon Foundation – OCLC Research, NYU, HathiTrust, Recap Libraries Objective: Characterize the near-term opportunity for externalizing management of academic research collections leveraging capacity of large-scale shared print and digital repositories* Outcomes: opportunity and risk assessment based on aggregate collection analysis; draft service agreement enabling generic consumer library to selectively outsource preservation and access of low-use research collections to large-scale print and digital repositories *From the RLG Partner Update January 7, 2010
27
Partnership & Resources (4) CRL TRAC Audit – Portico and HathiTrust assessments timely – “Certification will augment CRL’s strategic archiving of print, and support a responsible transition to electronic- only formats where appropriate.” – Work with UC to design shared print journal archiving effort – “With this hybrid strategy CRL hopes to enable its community to accelerate the shift to electronic-only resources in a careful and responsible manner.” * http://www.crl.edu/archiving-preservation/digital- archives/certification-and-assessment-digital-repositories
28
Partnership & Resources (5) New cost model Based on benefits to institutions – Public Domain – In-copyright Volumes “held” Covered by Settlement – Print replacement, users with print disabilities; research corpus Not – Section 108; expand via authentication
29
Partnership & Resources (6) Timeline: – Implement in 2013 – Accept new partners now with costs based on overlap calculations Requirements: – Print holdings database – Update mechanisms – Manual remediation
30
Partnership & Resources (7) Print holdings database will also benefit – De-duplication Compromises user experience, obscures collection development needs – Management of print volumes Information to withdraw volumes (journals) – Legal uses of copyright materials Section 108, 121, ADA uses will depend knowledge of which institutions own(ed) which mate

Technology

Technology - OAIS GRIN Internal Data Loading GRIN Internal Data Loading Google [OCA] In-house Conversion Google [OCA] In-house Conversion MARC record extensions (Aleph) Rights DB MARC record extensions (Aleph) Rights DB Page Turner HathiTrust API OAI GeoIP DB CNRI Handles [Solr] Page Turner HathiTrust API OAI GeoIP DB CNRI Handles [Solr] METS/PREMIS object TIFF G4/JPEG2000 OCR MD5 checksums METS/PREMIS object TIFF G4/JPEG2000 OCR MD5 checksums METS object PNG OCR PDF METS object PNG OCR PDF Isilon Site Replication TSM MD5 checksum validation Isilon Site Replication TSM MD5 checksum validation GROOVE (JHOVE) GROOVE (JHOVE) ;
33
Technology – Architecture Inbound validation, standards-based object storage and related metadata Storage in Ann Arbor and Indianapolis Encrypted backup to 3 rd location Rights database for rights metadata Online catalog as source and storage for descriptive metadata
34
Technology - Ingest Automatic validation in GROOVE – Check barcode check digit using Luhn algorithm – Fixity check on JPG2000, TIFF, UTF8 using MD5 – Well-formedness and embedded metadata check on JPG2000, TIFF, UTF8 using JHOVE
35
Simple filesystem layout – One directory per volume, zip file and METS file – Use of a namespace allows for conflicting identifiers – Namespaces for institutions and, if needed, types of identifiers within the institution Technology - Repository
36
Why METS? – Can serve as Archival Information Package and a Dissemination Information Package – Designed to record the relationship between pieces of complex digital objects – Can be created automatically as texts are loaded or reloaded – Preservation actions (PREMIS) Technology – METS Object
37
What’s there? – metsHdr with an ID and CREATEDATE – 2 dmdSecs: Marcxml and mdRef – amdSec containing one techMD with PREMIS metadata – fileSec with 4 fileGrps (zip, images, OCR, hOCR) – Physical structMap tying together files with metadata (pg. numbers and features) Technology – METS Object
