Current CVLs Projects
Discussion Papers
There are currently two discussion papers on CVLs:
Research into Controlled Value Lists across State Agencies
In 2005 a student at Victoria University developed a discussion paper on government agencies use of CVLs. The work undertaken involved:
- Interviews with six government agencies regarding CVL usage relevant to Extensible Name and Address (XNAL) standard.
- Identification of four success factors required for a successful implementation of CVLs.
- Development of a CVLs prototype using Fedora Digital Object Repository.
The discussion paper concludes that:
- Current usage of CVLs by government agencies varies greatly.
- A larger survey is required.
- Further investigation is required to determine if Fedora Digital Object Repository would help government agencies resolve current problems with CVLs implementation.
A full copy of the research paper is available on request: e-gif@ssc.govt.nz.
