To offer an interface for the library’s digital collections and archives, Yale Library has adopted the hydra stack for what are currently 3 access interfaces, findit, an application currently supporting 9 special collections and containing approximately 700k object, the Henry Kissinger Papers which when complete will contain approximately 1.7m images, and the Yale Indian Papers Project, a small collection of approximately 2k objects . This presentation summarizes key customizations and features including ingest, contextual navigation, fulltext search, image and transcript viewing, and ongoing work with authentication and authorization. and A lightning talk given at the Open Repositories conference in 2015 held in Indianapolis described thus

At the Digital Collections and Archives (DCA) at Tufts University we have designed, built, and integrated our archival collection management system and repository’s administrative interface to facilitate ingesting archival objects into our Fedora based repository. This 24x7 session briefly explores the assumptions and functional requirements we have used to guide this development work. The DCA’s unique position as an archives that is one of the key stakeholders and users of the Tufts institutional repository has enabled us to meet this integration challenge. The session describes how the integration of our archival collection management system and our repository relies on the ability to flexibly move metadata from one system to another. and A lightning talk given at the Open Repositories conference in 2015 held in Indianapolis described thus

Open source software isn’t really free. This might seem obvious to some, but there are many members of open source communities that consume rather than contribute, Slides from a panel session given at the Open Repositories conference in 2015 held in Indianapolis described thus, and they use the software but are either unwilling or unable to engage with the community to write code, submit use cases, create documentation, or do any of the other things that make an open source project a success. Fortunately, things don't have to be this way. Over the past two years, the Fedora project has undertaken a great effort to revitalize not only the software but the community itself. By maintaining open, transparent communication, soliciting use cases, development, and testing from community members, and establishing a clear project governance structure, we have laid the groundwork for a successful community source project. At the same time, the Islandora and Hydra communities have pursued similar strategies to build and sustain their own communities and the broader Fedora community. This panel will feature a discussion on the recent successes of the Fedora community and future plans to continue raising the level of community engagement and project ownership.

In the past year, the major groundwork has been laid for repository systems to support ORCID identifiers. DSpace, Hydra, and EPrints all have support for storing and managing ORCIDs. However, we are still in the early stages of ORCID adoption. Only a small fraction of repository content is annotated with ORCIDs, and most end-users have not yet realized any benefit from the features based on ORCID. This panel will bring together representatives of major repository systems to relate the current status of ORCID implementations, discuss plans for future work, and identify shared goals and challenges. The panelists will discuss how ORCID support provides practical benefits both to repository staff and end-users, with a focus on features that exist now or will exist in the next year. and Slides from a panel session given at the Open Repositories conference in 2015 held in Indianapolis described thus
