The Role of Evidence in Establishing Trust in Repositories
This article arises from work by the Digital Curation Centre (DCC) Working Group examining mechanisms to roll out audit and certification services for digital repositories in the United Kingdom. Our attempt to develop a program for applying audit and certification processes and tools took as its starting point the RLG-NARA Audit Checklist for Certifying Digital Repositories. Our intention was to appraise critically the checklist and conceive a means of applying its mechanics within a diverse range of repository environments. We were struck by the realization that while a great deal of effort has been invested in determining the characteristics of a 'trusted digital repository', far less effort has concentrated on the ways in which the presence of the attributes can be demonstrated and their qualities measured. With this in mind we sought to explore the role of evidence within the certification process, and to identify examples of the types of evidence (e.g., documentary, observational, and testimonial) that might be desirable during the course of a repository audit.

The theme(s) of the Joseph story: a literary analysis
Since the 1970s the application of narrative analysis to the Joseph Story has enriched
its reading. But those who apply this method to the narrative produce significantly different
results in terms of what its theme is. The aim of this thesis is to investigate the reasons for this
and to articulate as objectively as possible the theme of the Joseph Story.
Chapter One establishes the context of this investigation by evaluating the major
narrative readings of the Joseph Story. It reveals that those who apply narrative
methodologies to the story come to different conclusions about what its theme is. It notes that
the different results could be due to different narrative approaches, the literary context of the
narrative, and the complex nature of the text itself. We choose Humphreys, Longacre, and
Turner as our dialogue partners because they represent different narrative methods of reading
the Joseph Story. The reference terms `narrative criticism' and `theme' are then defined.
Chapter Two argues that the way to overcome the confusion concerning the theme (s)
of the Joseph Story is to use a methodology that addresses the limitations of the literary
approaches applied to the narrative and takes note of the wider literary context of Genesis and
the rich nature of the text. This chapter then proposes a narrative methodology of
`triangulation' that comprises plot analysis, text-linguistics and poetics.
Chapters three, four and five apply this methodology to the entire narrative in Genesis
37-50 via a detailed analysis of Genesis 37,44-45, and 49-50, the beginning, middle and end
of the narrative, respectively. The motifs that emerge from our analysis are family breakdown,
power, providence, blessing, and land. Chapter six concludes that each of these motifs is a key
concern of the Joseph Story but none by itself adequately articulates the story's theme. It is
the ecology of these motifs that enunciates the theme: God's providential work with and
through Jacob's dysfunctional family, preserving it and blessing others
