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

This session will present a case study of Lafayette College’s repository migration project. We will share our experience modeling, developing, and migrating to a custom Hyrax implementation with a lightweight team of one librarian and one developer working within a small liberal arts college context. The first phase of this migration project centered on text-based digital collections, including college newspapers, magazines, and faculty scholarly output, while future work will focus on migrating image collections into the repository. and A presentation at Samvera Connect 2019 described thus
