  20. Funding environment creates a driver for research management systems including management of research outputs • Government and other funding bodies requirement for improved performance • Government wanting to see higher profile internationally for NZ research • Higher profile of institutional research on the web also required because of ranking system developments

  21. Which piece of the puzzle is common? Research Outputs

  22. Background on the Research+ Project at UoA • During 2009 the University of Auckland began a process to implement a new Research Management System using InfoEd (US) • In 2010 decision made to use Symplectic Elements (UK) for research publications module of the overall system • Symplectic will become the integration layer as data entered into this system can be offered up for re-use in other systems (eg InfoEd grants module) and it comes with an “out of the box” (SWORD) upload facility so full text can be uploaded to the existing University of Auckland DSpace repository – ResearchSpace

  23. SWORD – an explanation SWORD on Steroids This part of the system uses an upload facility that is seamless to the user Buried behind the scenes is a customised SWORD Deposit mechanism: an Atom Publishing Standard that uploads a file and the associated packet of metadata and maintains the 2 way connection

  24. How the model works API services and direct exports populated with data from RO Module 2 way flow Deposit entry point in the RO Module, uses SWORD protocol for deposit

  25. Problems solved using integrated model • Metadata is entered once only and flows into other systems • Accurate well formed data is sourced from indexing services/publishers/suppliers wherever possible • Full text can be uploaded at anytime and the repository acts as a file store for the system • Two way connection between the Research Publications system (Symplectic) and the Research Repository (Dspace) so Permanent URL can be exchanged, & if records are deleted the change flows back to the other system
