About the Repository

The CAPR Repository contains more than 850 documents across 7 categories. The repository provides a central storage site for documents collected from the 6th studied funding agencies as well as other documents produced during the CAPR project.

The repository uses an open source stack of technologies including a content management system (Drupal), a digital repository (Fedora), and a new module developed specifically for Drupal (Islandora) that enables communication and interaction between Drupal and Fedora. All digital objects stored in the repository are described by metadata records using the Dublin Core Metadata Element Set. Users can search and browse the entire repository and/or individual collections. All publicly available objects can be viewed and downloaded from the repository. In some cases, project information or data have access constraints, but metadata describing the objects is available.
