Modular Pre-Ingest Tool for Diverse Needs of Producers

Abstract

We introduce an open-source pre-ingest tool that assists the generation of Submission Information Packages (SIPs) that are to be submitted to the national digital preservation service in Finland. The pre-ingest tool consists of several independent components that produce the parts of a METS document required by the national preservation service. These components are easy to modify when developing services for different user demands or for different repositories. Users of the tool provide the necessary information as parameters for the tool, which produces the structure and descriptions for the SIP. The pre-ingest tool reduces the need to deeply understand either METS, PREMIS or other metadata formats to be able to preserve digital assets.
