This project will develop a SWORD plugin for the Moodle VLE, using recently developed PHP libraries, so that objects in the VLE can be easily deposited in common OA IRs. It will further extend the efficacy of this approach by developing from the plugin an application to support deposit of Copyright Licensed materials from VLE to IR, addressing the restrictions and requirements of the Copyright Licensing agreement.
