Well, while we are mentioning good new books in the area, let me give a
plug to New Content in Digital Repositories: The changing research
landscape by Natasha Simons and Joanna Richardson from Griffith
University which is available now from Amazon (and other fine places not
doubt).
Or as Amazon describes it: Key Features: explores the role of
repositories in the research lifecycle, and the emerging context for
increasing non-text based content; focuses on the management of research
data in repositories and related issues such as metadata and persistent
identifiers; discusses skills and knowledge needed by repository staff
to manage content
diversity.<http://www.amazon.co.uk/New-Content-Digital-Repositories-Professional/dp/1843347431/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1383111961&sr=8-1&keywords=new+content+in+digital+repositories>
Full disclosure - I wrote a foreword for it.
