CooperaBon
between
FAO
and
UNESCO-­‐IOC/IODE

4. IntroducBon
 FAO
and
UNESCO-­‐IOC
released
a
customized
version
of
DSpace
–
an
Open
Source,
digital
document
repository
system.
 The
communiBes
supported
by
FAO
and
UNESCO-­‐IOC/
IODE
are
synergisBc
and
the
standards
on
metadata
and
controlled
vocabularies
are
similar
for
both.
 Goals:
o Promote
open
access
to
scienBfic
informaBon
o Enhance
the
internal
scienBfic
communicaBon
o Make
scienBfic
informaBon
more
accessible
o Increase
impact
of
research
informaBon

7. A
different
level
approach
The
OceanDocs
Central
is
available
for
smaller
insBtutes
and
insBtutes
with
limited
internet
capacity
Odins
create
their
network
repository
Some
insBtutes
have
their
own
repository
The
oceanographic
collecBon
can
be
a
part
of
a
larger
insBtuBonal
repository

8. FAO

a
tool
for
AGRIS
centres
 ObjecBves:
Assure
quality
in
metadata
creaBon
Sharing
informaBon
in
a
standardized
manner
Use
of
