-This document provides a comprehensive specification for the creation and parsing of E-ARK Submission Information Packages (SIP). Its primary goals include outlining a general-purpose structure for Submission Information Packages that accommodates a diverse array of archival materials—such as document and image collections, databases, and geographical data. Additionally, it aims to improve interoperability between Producers and Archives by recommending best practices for metadata, content, and the structural organization of Submission Information Packages. This specification is designed for a broad audience, including record creators, archival institutions, and software providers tasked with the preparation, packaging, delivery, and reception of information packages for archiving within an Open Archival Information System (OAIS), specifically targeting the pre-ingest and ingest stages.
