Thu 15th Mar, 2007

JISC invites proposals for 4 separate studies to identify and analyse the significant properties of four different types of digital objects for digital preservation purposes: e-learning objects, software, vector images and moving images. For each object type, the contractors are required to develop a model for expressing significant properties and propose standard ways of expressing these in the form of templates.

Funding of up to £40,000 (including VAT and expenses) is available for each of the four studies. The deadline for proposals is 1300 hours on Thursday 19th April 2007 .
