DCC Tutorial: Building Trust in Digital Repositories - Using the DRAMBORA Toolkit, London, UK, 26 April 2007

• http://www.dcc.ac.uk/events/drambora-london-2007/

These practical tutorials opened with a contextual overview of the need for an evidence-based audit of digital repositories and described the results of the DCC pilot audits to date as well as lessons. The tutorials then moved on to demonstrate how institutions can make use of the DRAMBORA toolkit to design, develop, evaluate, and/or refine new or existing trusted digital repository systems and workflows. This involved a walkthrough of the audit process with practical examples based on the pilot audits.

Participants were encouraged to draw upon and share their own experiences during this discussion. Participants received a hard copy of the DRAMBORA toolkit and related documentation to take away with them, so they could begin to assess their own repositories and workflows or start developing a repository system.
