Abstract

This paper presents the results of the OBV working group “Repositories in the Austrian Library Network”. The aim of the working group was to develop a guideline for the registration of metadata for objects in repositories, which would contribute to the development of uniform standards in this regard, and with the help of which it should subsequently be possible to identify repository holdings in Alma or in the Austrian Union Catalogue without creating duplicates. Further goals were the development of recommendations for a central provision of metadata of open access publications to simplify local workflows (analogous to the DFG-funded project DeepGreen) by means of partial automation, as well as recommendations for establishing a tab for open access materials in the search engine of the Austrian Library Network (analogous to the tabs “Literature”, “Theses and Dissertations” and “Bequests / Autographs”).
