Goals
Phaidra is used
- as a long-term preservation system through the assignment of persistent identifiers (permanent links)
- to manage and store any kind of digital object (digital born and analogue) that is developed in an academic environment: in the fields of a) research (e.g. articles, papers, videos, audios, containers), b) learning & teaching (e.g. learning objects) and c) administration (e.g. forms) at University of Vienna,
- to make abovementioned assets per default freely accessible (according to the wishes of the owner of the object and the therefore assigned access rights). The objects are provided with licenses.
- to provide tools to manage / view / edit the assets (e.g. e_book viewer).
Target groups
According to the digital information policy of the University of Vienna, there are three main target groups: all members of the University, all students of the University, guests. Detailed: researchers, lecturers, the students of the University, University management, professional agencies, national institutions (cultural heritage), companies, cooperating researchers from outside University, other guests.

- implement an open access policy,
- implement e-learning strategies,
realize a better evidence of the University’s achievements in research and teaching and eventually
- to shape research results into collections of digital objects.
