Welcome!

This implementation focuses on the improvements and testing of the original code of the data capsule appliance developed as part of the project "Data Capsule Appliance for Research Analysis of Restricted and Sensitive Data in Academic Libraries" funded by the Institute of Library and Museum Services in 2018-2022 (#LG-71-17-0094). The project focused on packaging the original data capsule code developed by the HathiTrust research center so that it can be used by academic libraries on a broader range of restricted collections. While some packaging has been done, the appliance was still too cumbersome to set up and manage by libraries and librarians. This iteration is an attempt to further improve the set up and use cloud computing resources so that the appliance relies on lighter technology resources available to libraries.
