WP5: Proofs of Concept Scenarios PoC Phase 1 PoC Phase 2 DCH Glossary


The DCH-RP Work Package 5 will conduct experimental proofs of concept reflecting scenarios that are elemental to the development of a roadmap for the DCH community.


Theme ID Title Description
1. Organisational challenges Scenario 1.1 Using specialised research tools with preserved inhouse material A major memory institution in France which has its own development team is gradually implementing a solution for digital preservation. It is using local in-house storage. The institution participates in projects which aggregate content to Europeana and regularly uses social media channels to engage with the wider public. Thus, the access to its digital collections is either possible through the institutional website, or resource discovery is made via specialised portals and social media which in fact redirect the users to the institutional webserver. Recently, it has happened several times that researchers ask to use specialised document analysis tools that are available through an e-Infrastructure. This raises issues of sharing content outside the institutional storage and preservation facilities on the cloud used by the eInfrastucture, or the use of ‘external’ tools for processing locally stored documents. Both options raise concerns, and for the time being there is no good solution for the end users.
