'''Open Archives Initiative Object Reuse and Exchange''' (OAI-ORE) defines standards for the description and exchange of aggregations of [[Web resource]]s. The OAI-ORE specifications are based around the '''ORE Model''' which introduces the '''Resource Map''' (ReM) that makes it possible to associate an identity with aggregations of resources and make assertions about their structure and semantics. Version 1.0 of the specification was released on [[17 October]][[ 2008]].<ref>"Open Archives Initiative Announces Production Release of Object Reuse and Exchange Specifications." [http://www.openarchives.org/ore/documents/ore-production-press-release.pdf OAI-ORE Production Release Press Release]. 17-Oct-2008</ref>

These aggregations (sometimes called ''compound digital objects'' or ''compound information objects'') may combine distributed resources with multiple media types including text, images, data, and video. The goal of OAI-ORE is to expose the rich content in aggregations to applications that support authoring, deposit, exchange, visualization, reuse, and [[digital preservation|preservation]].
