OAI-PMH for Resource Harvesting
Van de Sompel, Herbert and Nelson, Michael L. (2005) OAI-PMH for Resource Harvesting. Delivered at CERN workshop on Innovations in Scholarly Communication (OAI4), Geneva (Switzerland). Il s'agit d'une présentation.

"A variety of examples have arisen in which the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) has been used for applications beyond bibliographic metadata interchange. One of these examples is the use of OAI-PMH to harvest resources and not just metadata. Advanced resource discovery and preservations capabilities are possible by combining complex object formats such as MPEG-21 DIDL, METS and SCORM with the OAI-PMH. In this tutorial, we review community conventions and practices that have provided the impetus for resource harvesting."
