  2. ENCompass Can… • Search across disparate collections • Provide access to digital material • Store and manage metadata in multiple formats

  3. ENCompass Concepts • Hierarchical method for arranging data and metadata • Collections • Containers • Objects • Self-defined metadata structures • Reverse inheritance (“bubble-up”) • Cross-collection searching (mapping) • Collections versus repositories

  4. Repositories vs Collections • Repository – where the data and metadata is stored; the table space on the server • Collection – the intellectual grouping/s of the data and metadata • Each has a “manager” in the System Administration client
