Abstract
Describes the background, design and working of a set of tools to catalogue and ingest (import) objects into a digital archive. The toolset had their origin in a collaboration between OCLC and RLG to define the characteristics of a trusted digital repository. The working of the tools is outlined. Their usage by the Connecticut State Library is discussed.
