The Content Reuse Working Group is currently investigating new projects.

Content Reuse Working Group Charge

The working group will research, develop, and/or deploy recommended practices for digital content reuse in galleries, libraries, archives, museums, repositories, and other cultural heritage organizations.

Past Projects

Digital Content Reuse Assessment Framework Toolkit (D-CRAFT)

About the Project

From July 2019 through June 2023, members of the working group designed and deployed the Digital Content Reuse Assessment Framework Toolkit (D-CRAFT). D-CRAFT helps digital library practitioners measure the use and reuse of their digital objects. The toolkit can help streamline the reuse assessment process and make it more efficient.

The toolkit contains:

Project Team

  • Elizabeth Joan Kelly
  • Ayla Stein Kenfield
  • Kinza Masood
  • Caroline Muglia
  • Ali Shiri
  • Santi Thompson
  • Liz Woolcott

The project team was assisted by project consultants, experts, and an advisory group.

Developing a Framework for Measuring Reuse of Digital Objects

About the Project

From July 1, 2017 to June 30, 2018, members of working group conducted the Developing a Framework for Measuring Reuse of Digital Objects project. The project conducted a formal needs assessment of the digital library community to determine desired functionality for a future reuse assessment toolkit.

The project was sponsored by an IMLS National Leadership/National Forum grant (LG-73-17-0002-17) award.

In September 2018 the project team released Setting a Foundation for Assessing Content Reuse: A White Paper From the Developing a Framework for Measuring Reuse of Digital Objects (DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/BQJVR). This white paper (a) provides a broad overview of the Measuring Reuse project, including background information on the AIG, (b) outlines the methods used by the project team, (c) summarizes results, and (d) discusses potential next steps.

Project Team

  • Genya O’Gara, Virtual Library of Virginia
  • Elizabeth Kelly, Loyola University New Orleans
  • Caroline Muglia, University of Southern California
  • Ayla Stein, University of Illinois
  • Santi Thompson, University of Houston
  • Liz Woolcott, Utah State University

Get Involved

The group's work is archived using the Open Science Framework.

If you have any questions, or are interested in participating in the working group, please contact Santi Thompson.
