We're currently migrating a number of in-house and DSpace systems into SIPs for ingest into Rosetta. My advice is to put as much metadata as possible into the METS. For example, just this week we seriously discussed putting sushi sections in at the item level. Previously sushi was done by very different systems at very different levels, but it's emerged as the only serious standard for encoding usage statistics. We're also using putting TEIHDRs and things like that in, simply because it makes them much more available. cheers stuart -- ...let us be heard from red core to black sky On 3 June 2017 at 01:56, Andrew Weidner <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Hi all, > > Can anyone point me to guidelines or best practices documentation around > creating SIPs for transfer to archival storage?
