The RDA Knowledge Base: Documentation on the Knowledge Base and related assets

RDA TIGER is a Horizon Europe (HE) -funded project that aims to increase the impact of RDA Working Groups, by providing services that support and facilitate their work. Within it's Output Support work package (WP4) led by DANS, the project has developed a set of software tools and supporting guidance materials. These aim to address a number of needs and deficiencies in respect of RDA output management and the processes that create them. In broad terms, there are two focus areas:

1. Ensuring that RDA outputs (recommendations, support materials, and related outputs) are properly curated and preserved, and that they are adequately tagged and characterized to improve their future findability and reuse; and
2. Providing mechanisms for describing and persisting the effort that goes into landscape assessments and desk research during especially working group activities, effectively also turning these efforts into reusable and easily findable digital resources.

This document aims to provide documentation for the Knowledge Base and associated assets. It should serve as the starting point for learning about how the Knowledge Base is set up and managed, as well as a means to navigate related assets.
