The LEAP Project aims to combine interpretive analysis from publications with underlying archival data by linking electronic archives and electronic publications. It investigates this through four exemplar projects that allow drilling down from synthesis in publications to primary archived data. The goals are to provide novel dissemination, make publications interactive and layered using supporting data, and explore linking distributed archives and publications.

9. Citation Questions How should e-archives & e-publications be referenced?

10. Copyright Questions Do the copyright issues of published material translate to archived material?

11. Sustainability Questions How far are tailored interfaces capable of long-term preservation?
