Curate is being collaboratively developed by several institutions in the Hydra community who share the need and vision for a Fedora-backed Institutional Repository. The first release of Curate was a collaboration between Notre Dame and Northwestern University, along with Digital Curation Experts (DCE) - a vendor hired jointly by our two institutions. Powered by the Hydra engine Sufia, the team worked quickly to release the first version of Curate in October 2013 which provides a basic self-deposit system that has support for various content types, collection building, DOI minting, and user profile creation. From the very beginning we have built Curate to be easy to theme and extend in order to ease the process of installation and use by other institutions.
In December 2013, additional partners will join the project including: Indiana University, the University of Cincinnati and the University of Virginia. Each institution contributes resources to the project in order to further our common goal to create a product that fits our needs and has a sustainable future.Together we will tackle additional content types (like complex data, software, media), administrative collections and more.
Our presentation will include:
* a brief demonstration of Curate and technical overview
* why and how we work together
* why build Curate
* the future of the project
