5 Step Guide to Becoming a Content Provider in the JISC Information Environment

Andy Powell, Ariadne, Dec 12, 2002
Commentary by Stephen Downes

This plan will work not only for JISC but for distributed learning object repository networks in general. The plan:

Expose metadata about your content - OAI and Z39.50CRLF
Share news/alerts using RSSCRLF
Become an OpenURL sourceCRLF
Become an OpenURL targetCRLF
Use persistent URIsCRLF

Bundles? Publishing companies? Who needs all that? Just get your metadata out there and make sure it points to learning objects. The network does the rest.(Thanks to S.I.T. for the link)
