News Two more updated plugins: OAI-PMH Harvester and OAI-PMH Repository

The Omeka team is happy to announce updates of the popular OAI-PMH Repository and OAI-PMH Harvester plugins for Omeka 2.0.

The Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting allows for metadata about objects to be shared across repositories and applications. The harvester allows you to import items into your Omeka installation using the protocol. The repository, in turn, makes metadata about your items available for other sites to collect.

The updated version of the repository also adds the METS standard to the formats available for the output, which makes files, in addition to metadata, available to harvesters.
