A new tool, Exactly, has been developed to help to acquire born digital content from donors and to start establishing provenance and fixity early in the acquisition process. The tool:
- can remotely and safely transfer any born-digital material from a sender to a recipient
- uses the BagIt File Packaging Format
- supports FTP transfer, network transfers
- can be integrated into sharing workflows using Dropbox or Google Drive
- metadata templates can be created for the sender to fill out before submission
- can send email notifications with transfer data and manifests when files have been delivered
