Technical options

---

There are a variety of technical options for contributing to DigitalNZ Search. From time-to-time we also run special projects that you can contribute content to, such as the Mix and Mash initiative.

Harvesting options

Here are the different ways you can contribute data about your digital material to DigitalNZ Search:

• Send us a list of links for the content (usually only used if it isn't being updated regularly).
• Create an XML sitemap that points to the content. We'll extract what we can from your web pages.
• Provide an RSS feed that we can monitor for content.
• Provide an OAI-PMH feed that we can monitor for content.
• Provide an XML file of information about your content.
• Make information available to us through an API.
• Load your content into a content hosting service such as the Shared Repository or DigitalNZ Kete.
• Partner with one of the collaborative initiatives we work with to harvest content e.g. Matapihi, KRIS, APNK Kete, NZ Museums, Our Space, the Community Archive, or the Open Library.
