Jorum+

Jorum+ is funded under Strand B X4L and from JISC IE funding. The project commenced on 1st October 2002 and is due to end in July 2005. It is a joint project between the JISC-funded national data centres, EDINA and MIMAS, and CETIS, and is working closely with consultants active in the online learning field.

Jorum+ will:

• provide a provisional collecting repository for the content of JISC 5/99 and X4L Strand A projects from early February 2003, using the intraLibrary and Xtensis learning object repository software systems
• scope the needs of the long-term repository service that will form part of the JISC's Information Environment, in collaboration with CETIS
• provide test-bed facilities for a development bay to allow the successful re-purposing of extant content in X4L
• provide support services for X4L and 5/99 project staff, in collaboration with CETIS
