Abstract: Developing preservation processes for a trusted digital repository will require the integration of new methods, policies, standards, and technologies. Digital repositories should be able to preserve electronic materials for periods at least comparable to existing preservation methods. Modern computing technology in general is barely fifty years old and few of us have seen or used digital objects that are more than ten years old. While traditional preservation practices are comparatively well-developed, lack of experience and lack of consensus raise some questions about how we should proceed with digital-based preservation processes. Can we preserve a digital object for at least one-hundred years? Can we answer questions such as "Is this object the digital original"? or "How old is this digital object"? What does it mean to be a trusted repository of digital materials? A basic premise of this article is that there are many technologies available today that will help us build trust in a digital preservation process and that these technologies can be readily integrated into an operational digital preservation framework Description: Digital Preservation URI: http://hdl.handle.net/1944/420 Files in this item: 1

Abstract: Resource mobilization or generation is one of the global challenges in all sectors such as business, agriculture, banking, industry etc. In recent years, higher education has undergone important changes including the shift from teacher centered to a student centered learning, and the replacement of the traditional practice of learning over a specified period of time by the concept of lifelong learning. Higher education also is facing the new challenges of Information resource mobilization and management. The advancement of Information and communication technology (ICT) and multimedia applications has resulted in a lot of change in education like classroom teaching, e-learning, scholarly communication, online resources etc. In the current scenario of higher education, institutional repositories play a major role in collective resource mobilization and resource sharing across the nation and over the globe. This paper explains how scientific community and academia in Cochin University of Science & Technology contribute for resource mobilization through the institutional repository and how it is beneficial to the institution as well as the academic community.
