A SIP is the content and metadata received from an information producer by a preservation repository. As mentioned in an earlier requirement, the TDR requires a minimum of 9 metadata fields to be completed before a dataset can be uploaded. Different dataverse administrators can require additional fields. Creating a Dataverse
