A Q&A session with a number of panelists who have experience of installing and/or configuring and/or running Dataverse and Kuha2 as an OAI-PMH endpoint, or preparing the study level metadata files that are harvested from them.

This webinar aims at providing support to CESSDA Service Providers with no OAI-PMH endpoint, or with NESSTAR running an OAI-PMH extension who wish to find alternative OAI-PMH solutions. The support is offered by a number of panelists who have experience of installing, configuring and/or running Dataverse and Kuha2 as an OAI-PMH endpoint, or preparing the study level metadata files that are harvested from them.

The participatipants will learn about the installation, configuration and operation of Dataverse and Kuha2 as OAI-PMH endpoints, based on real-word experience.

Pre-requisite: Participants should understand the concept of ‘OAI-PMH endpoint’ and be aware that the CESSDA Data Catalogue harvests study level metadata from multiple OAI-PMH endpoints in DDI XML format.

Organisational aspects

The webinar is free of charge and will last 90 minutes. The event is for CESSDA Service Providers and CESSDA Main Office´s staff only.

The format will be question and answer-based, with few (if any) presentations. Attendees will have the opportunity to submit questions as part of the registration process, or during the webinar. Hopefully there will be time to answer them all on the day.

The organisers will do their best to make a transcript of the questions and answers so they can be used as a resource, and consulted as required.
