SUNScholar is the container for the digital research objects produced by researchers at Stellenbosch University and it is the long term strategy of the library to preserve the research archive by developing a repository preservation plan.

The repository preservation plan assists with the following:

  • Long term capacity planning for the operation and maintenance of the research archive container.
  • Long term preservation of the digital objects (curation) contained in the research archive.
