Abstract

This workshop will bring together people with Open Archives Initiative (OAI) [1] metadata harvesting experience to discuss problems, their solutions, and to identify best practices. The focus will be on near-to medium-term practical issues. Participants will have the opportunity to discuss problems or raise issues that they have encountered and will benefit from the shared experience of the other participants. The workshop will combine and distill the OAI harvesting knowledge and experience of the participants to detail 1) best practices and existing solutions to particular harvesting problems; and 2) unresolved problems and issues with current implementations, the specification, or limitations of version 2.0 the OAI protocol for metadata harvesting (OAI-PMH) [2]. The conclusions of the workshop will be disseminated to the wider OAI community.
