The Yale Office of Digital Assets and Infrastructure is an initiative of the Provost to develop a University-wide digital content strategy for Yale University.

Established in the fall of 2008, ODAI provides strategic and operational leadership for the development of the University's digital content infrastructure and assets.  ODAI’s key leadership and coordination function guides and facilitates campus collaboration to develop a University-wide digital content management strategy with defined standards, policies and implementation plans.

Mission:
Drawing upon the extensive faculty and staff resources of the campus, accelerate the development of Yale’s digital content infrastructure into a world-class resource that ensures Yale's digital assets will be discoverable and accessible for teaching and research both now and in the future and that provides a coherent environment for producing, managing, and disseminating the University's intellectual digital assets.

Objectives:

1. Lead and engage Yale's community of digital creators and stewards in the development of a vision for a coherent digital content environment for the University.
2. Define and develop foundational tools, systems and platforms based on open, interoperable architecture that will meet the digital content management needs of faculty, staff, and future learners and that will address pressing needs of the collections.
3. Leverage University investments in digital content initiatives through the coordination and selective centralization of digital infrastructure resources to minimize redundant effort.
4. Create/Ensure the means to identify and protect Yale digital assets for use now and in the future.
