UKOLN Web sites and services unavailable weekend beginning 27 March

Bath University Computing Services is planning engineering work from 4.30pm on Friday 27 March until 9.00am on Monday 30 March. This means that this SWORD wiki and other UKOLN Web sites and services will be available for that period. Please contact UKOLN urgently quoting "f.a.o. support" if you have any concerns regarding UKOLN's services that weekend.

The main SWORD website (http://www.swordapp.org/) will however be available during this period.

SWORD

  • SWORD is a lightweight protocol for deposit.
  • SWORD is a profile of the Atom Publishing Protocol.
  • SWORD is a JISC-funded initiative.
  • SWORD stands for Simple Web-service Offering Repository Deposit.

The motivation for SWORD is 'lowering the barriers to deposit', principally deposit into repositories, but potentially deposit into any system which wants to receive content from remote sources.
