... The Digital Library Archive (DLA) contains: · WHOI archives; · Historical photographs and oceanographic instruments; · Scientific data, e.g., echo sounding records from WHOI research vessel expeditions; · Technical report collections; and · Maps, nautical charts, geologic and bathymetric maps, and cruise tracks.

... · Changes generate a new version of the dataset · Previous versions must persist · Accessible online via a permanent identifier · Usable on a decadal timescale (using standards such as the Open Archive Information Standard) · Citable in the scientific literature to provide links to marine libraries · Discoverable To summarize these data distribution paradigm issues, the problem is to find ways for IODE data centers to engage in digital library practices while leaving current infrastructure largely intact.

... · Engage other data centers in data publication through reporting our experiences and disseminating knowledge through appropriate routes, such as workshops, conferences and other publications. · Engage SeaDataNet II when it starts later in 2011.
