The Persistent Digital Archives and Library System, or PeDALS, is a research project that has two technical goals. First, to develop a curatorial rationale to support an automated, integrated workflow to process collections of digital publications and records. Second, to implement "digital stacks" using an inexpensive, storage network that can preserve the authenticity and integrity of the collections.
Recollection seeks to provide the platform, tools and environment that enables the community of NDIIPP Partners to share their collections and data on an ongoing basis. In addition, NDIIPP collections can be showcased from a central point through the activities of the Partners, and not the manual labor of the Library. This allows NDIIPP to maintain the benefits of a distributed network of partners and also take advantage of the collections speaking to one another (Campbell, 2009). Linked data technology is used in Recollection as a basic platform for librarians and curators exposing collections to the Web, and as a source of data to augment these collections. Potential users of the information can more easily discover and analyze this data in a variety of new ways as a result. Not only do consumers of the information have increased access, but collection curators can begin to connect information across collections and from the WWW to enhance collection value with new resources.
Recollection is a free platform for generating and customizing views, (interactive maps, timelines, facets, tag clouds) that allow users to experience your digital collections. Provide your users with novel and intuitive ways to explore your content
