IIa recently completed two projects using Islandora. The first is a repository for the Homeland Defense Information Analysis Center (HDIAC) which IIa operates for the Department of Defense. The content is primarily articles, reports and other documents. The second project was done with IIa's public partner, the National Technical Information Service, as part of the Federal Science Repository Service. The project to develop a scientific and technical information repository for the Iraqi Ministry of Science & Technology was funded by the State Department and sponsored by the Commercial Law Development Program of the Department of Commerce. Unlike the more contained HDIAC project, it included non-traditional objects such as GIS files, a knowledge transfer and training component, and bi-lingual, Arabic and English, interfaces.
