The State and University Library (hereafter called SB) is a public institution under the Danish Ministry of Culture. The library serves as university library for Aarhus University, as the main loan centre for Danish public libraries and also as a national library.

As a national library SB is engaged in long term preservation of digital cultural heritage material as part of its obligations according to the Danish legal deposit law.

SB wants to procure a new System, that shall replace the Existing Meta-data Repository and the Meta-data Management GUI in the existing Infrastructure for Digital Preservation. At the same time we expect the new system to fully or partially replace our components for ingest and analysis, enrichment and validation processes, meta-data export, and access copy generation. Furthermore, we expect the new System to help us expand our processes for Digital Preservation Planning and Digital Preservation Actions.
