3. • Digital.CSIC within “Frames” Action Line, Vice-
presidency of Organization and Institutional
Relations
• A part of CSIC System of Scientific Information
(SIC)
• A tool to monitor CSIC research outputs
• A role in the institutional research evaluation
exercise
• 75% of CSIC outputs accessible through the
repository by 2013

4. Digital.CSIC: Content growth
through manual input
• Nearly 40,000 items
• 85% deposits through
Mediated Archiving
Service
• Fully dedicated
Technical Office
• One repository
librarian in each of 77
CSIC libraries
• 900 item deposit
monthly on average 4

5. Automated deposits: first
experiences and challenges
• Batch imports from CSIC • Not that automated..:
centers web sites: Metadata crosswalks
Robotics and Industrial Syntax differences
Informatics Institute (IRII),
Institute for Cross- One time imports
Disciplinary Physics and No synchronization in
Complex Systems content population
(IFISC) Missing fields: manual input
• SWORD: BioMed • 1400+ collections in
Central, arXiv Digital.CSIC

9. ConCiencia, a new deposit process
for Digital.CSIC?
• Metadata of 130,000+ research outputs
• Monthly content updates through APIs and
batch imports
• 4,500+ full texts uploaded in 3 months
• A substitute for DSpace submission
process? 9

12. Where are we heading to for enhanced
access to knowledge?
• As a preliminary step for enhanced transfer of
knowledge, long standing issues for efficient internal
workflow remain:
-What metadata schema and granularity for CSIC research
outputs
-A unique persistent author identifier
-Discipline in CSIC affiliations names
-Inner dinamism and own initiatives within CSIC centers
-The challenge of CSIC mixed centers and institutes
-Linked data
