Lead/Key Institutions

Big Sky Country Digital Network (BSCDN) is a partnership of the Montana State Library (MSL), Montana Historical Society, Montana State University, the University of Montana, and the North Dakota State Library. Montana State Library maintains the REPOX harvester and is responsible for ingests.  Montana State University provides tech support and assist with issues that arise with REPOX. Montana State University also writes XLST and maintains a test instance or REPOX.

Services Offered

BSCDN aggregates partners' metadata into a single standard, addressing metadata concerns (including copyright and licensing labeling), and working with partners to remediate issues. BSCDN is supported by in-state partners who understand the opportunities and challenges of our Montana community.

BSCDN provides assistance by sharing tools and techniques for quality assurance, normalization, standardization, and metadata enhancement. This assistance may be in-person or supported with webinars or online training.

BSCDN provides guidelines and support for digitization, long-term storage, and preservation activities. We communicate with partners and community through professional development and community outreach opportunities, and we share our knowledge and learn from other hubs in the DPLA network.
