The [https://repository.library.northeastern.edu Digital Repository Service] (DRS) is a secure repository system designed to store and share the scholarly work from Northeastern University’s colleges, departments, faculty, and staff. The DRS was developed by Northeastern University Libraries as a tool for the University community to protect the valuable information and data that has been created as part of the University’s research and instructional mission. It provides long-term security for the files it stores, as well as access management controls and support for various metadata standards (including MODS and Dublin Core) to help ensure that data is as accessible and usable in the present and the future.

Anyone is welcome to use the DRS to discover publicly available content, and members of the Northeastern community are encouraged to sign in to access additional content that may not be publicly available. Faculty can upload files, make them public, and share them with anyone, or restrict access to only a certain set of users.

The DRS also provides mechanisms through which repository data can be used in other venues, such as departmental portals, digital research projects, and online publications. Because the DRS is built using Fedora, an open source repository system with a user-friendly API, objects stored in the DRS can be accessed and displayed using customized web-publishing tools, like Omeka, Drupal, or WordPress.
