"Born Digital Collections: An Inter-Institutional Model for Stewardship (AIMS)." inter-institutional framework for stewarding born-digital content. The group plans to process and preserve thirteen born-digital collections of noteworthy individuals and/or organizations and make them discoverable via Hydra, a Fedora-based solution, which can easily be installed and implemented by other institutions.
