Estudo de uma aplicação open archives initiative e acessibilidade web para implementação de repositórios digitais

Abstract

A digital repository has the purpose to assimilate, preserve and disseminate scientific production od institutions. The Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi (MPEG) uses this technology to share their publications, separated into different research in the areas of Botany, Zoology, Environment Sciences and Social. Majority of the scientific publications occurs in electronic journals paid, which is a means in limited aspects of accessibility and dissemination of science. A modern solution to this problem is the implementation of repositories of accessible publication using the technology Open Archives Initiative, to provide free access to scientific productions between teaching and research institutions. The repository of MPEG offers secure storage of information and meets the specifications and guidelines od the standard of accessibility e-MAG of the federal government and the Guide to Accessibility of Web Content proposal by the World Wide Web Consourtion (W3C). The repository is in address http://repositorio.museugoeldi.br/jspui and contains 600 scientific publications.
