LITERACY MAP IN 2000

Why 2000?

Because the first meeting to establish BDTD, the Brazilian National ETD

Consortium, was held in January 2001.

What can we see in the maps?

(1) Brazil is very big. (2) Brazilian regions are very different in

terms of areas and of populations;(3) They are also very different in terms

of educational levels.

Why is this important?

It helps understand the beginning of BDTD and it shows how BDTD was

important in terms of disseminating ETDs, digital publishing, IPR issues,

etc.

Choice of the OAI-PMH – Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (http://www.openarchives.org/) to gather metadata

First union catalog using OAI-PMH (Dec 2002) – there were two additional institutions and between 1,700 and 2,000 metadata records

Some benefits BDTD brought:

The culture of ‘digital libraries’ was spread all over the (huge) country

Topics in IPR, restrictions and Open Access were addressed

The offer of references to researchers and

graduate students increased

Brazilian T&D became more visible

A metadata set for Brazilian ETDs was created

Brazilian institutions matured and became ready to introduce IR – Institutional Repositories and go beyond ETD (make available scholarly communications in general)

SOME ISSUES

Current

Poor quality of metadata

Institutions whose collections grow at a very slow pace

Digital preservation

Lack of a common set of statistic to allow comparisons among collections

Commitment from institutions to keep programs and services

Near future

Review of metadata model – is under discussion at the moment

Migration from TEDE to DSpace – some institutions

Repositories with multilingual interfaces

ETD CONSORTIAPavani & Southwick (ETD2004)

Goal & Requirements

Goal:

To create a collaborative environment to promote interoperability and increase the availability of ETDs on networked digital libraries

Requirements: Partnership

Participation

Objectives

Help each other start and maintain ETD programs

Share experiences and SW solutions

Find new ways of enhancing programs and ETDs themselves

Discuss and create standards to allow interoperability

Create union catalogs of metadata records

Elements

ETDs!!!! Coordination

Cooperation

Integration

Questions to Answer

Is it worthed to build a consortium? What are the benefits you expect from a

consortium?

Would you help build a consortium?

Would your institution join a consortium? Why? Why not?
