  1. www.medra.org Piero AttanasioAIE – Associazione Italiana Editori Updates from mEDRA: A networking strategy to enhance DOI deployment London, 22 June 2003 IDF member meeting

  2. www.medra.org Two mEDRA key concepts • The longer is the value chain, the higher is the DOI value • Intermediaries are key alliances for us • We are dialoguing with aggregators, secondary publishers, service providers, libraries, but also Telcom companies, IT vendors, etc. • Services are essential but our job is to be effective Registration Agency • Stimulate third parties to provide DOI-based services • Co-operation with other Registration agencies

  3. www.medra.org What we did from last year • We implemented the plans I illustrated last year • Full implementation of registration tools • Applications to control persistence • Voluntary deposit system • Relation tracking data structure • “Metadata manager” for small publishers (still in pilot version)

  4. www.medra.org What we did from last year • We started experimentation of the system • Some 30,000 DOIs registered by early adopters • 32 early adopters registrants, 80 prefixes allocated • That’s the easy part of our job: • July the 1st, 2004 we are starting our real business activities • Based on some paradigmatic business cases… • … and looking at new implementations, in the same line

  5. University community Publishers Publishers Publishers Publishers Publishers Other producers www.medra.org Business case 1:(10-1389/BC1.0) Casalini Digital Division University libraries mEDRA DOI assignment and metadata provision

  6. Australian university community Publishers Publishers Publishers Publishers Publishers Other producers www.medra.org A short term evolution… University libraries Casalini Digital Division Right negotiation for course packs mEDRA Search CAL

  7. www.medra.org Business case 2: Italian Med-On-Line(Tentative title) • A group of 14 Italian medical publishers will assign DOIs to their content • Both digital content and printed items • Journals articles, monographs, part of monographs • As a perspective: learning objects • Metadata will be enriched by cataloguing service • Possibly, secondary publishers and/or aggregators will be involved • Digitalisation of backlist • Digital Rights Management • Looking for institutional collaboration

  8. Medical professionals Resolution 1 Publishers mEDRA Publishers Link (DOI) Publishers Publishers DOI reg. DB Digitalisation Library Resolution 2 Aggregator www.medra.org Business case 2: Italian Med-On-Line Bibliographic database MD service DB Printed or digital items Search DOI Registration and metadata flow Rights management

  9. www.medra.org Business case 3: D-LORDOI-ed Learning Object Repositories • The objective is to allow educational institutions to search LOs from a single access point • Different types of LO providers will be involved • Collaboration with the Italian Ministry of Education and Italian Ministry of Innovation

  10. Learning community Search Search Search facilitites www.medra.org The D-LOR project LORs Service providers eLearning platforms vendors Publishers mEDRA eLearning providers Other LO producers D-LORs Content providers (created ad hoc) DOI assignment and metadata exchange Rights negotiation

  11. www.medra.org Collaboration with other RAs • A key issue for mEDRA • The concept is: once a registrant assigns DOIs to its content, it should access all the other services provided by other RAs or third parties • It is generally agreed by lack of practical experimentation • By next year we hope to show something concrete, with other RAs
