icdp Core Repositories

...professional long-term curation

ICDP does not provide a central core repository itself but a proper long-term storage including easy access to data and material for valid research purposes is mandatory for each ICDP project, even after the project itself is finished. Therefore, ICDP cooperates with several core repositories world-wide.
