As a result of work on the
CIRCLE project, Oxford Brookes

repository. The final report
is available at https://mw.brookes.ac.uk/display/circle/Outputs
The follow-up project is called RADAR (Research Archive
and Digital Asset Repository) - for more information see www.brookes.ac.uk/go/radar
Summary of the project
The CIRCLE project, funded by the JISC under the Repositories and

repository of learning objects and research outputs using Intralibrary
software. Members of this list may be interested in the following
themes explored by the project:
Practicalities of developing a single
repository for research and learning objects
Linking the repository to the
institutional VLE (Blackboard CE6)
Using web services to provide an open
access interface to Intralibrary
Extracting repository data and
reformatting it for use on staff profile (CV) webpages
