TRAC related web sites

 

The original work on TRAC was done by a taskforce through NARA and RLG. It was called the Audit checklist for certifying digital repositories. http://www.oclc.org/programs/ourwork/past/repositorycert.htm.  

 

The RLG/NARA Checklist was further refined into TRAC after CRL, in cooperation with RLG representative Robin Dale, received a Mellon grant which was used to test the checklist on three real repositories (ICPSR, KB and Portico.) http://www.crl.edu/content.asp?l1=13&l2=58&l3=142.  

 

To further this effort, and hopefully create an ISO standard, work is currently being done by a self-elected international working group called MOIMS. http://wiki.digitalrepositoryauditandcertification.org/bin/view/Main/WebHome.
