Draft: Subject to Change
A submission agreement "defines the nature and scope of the records involved in an Ingest Project and delineates the manner in which the Archive and the Producer execute the transfer, validation, and transformation of these records. In addition to guiding the work of the Producer and the Archive for transfer and transformation and serving as the benchmark for validation, it also provides both entities a document describing the terms of an Ingest Project that they can endorse and agree to." 2.1 Ingest Guide, http://dca.lib.tufts.edu/features/nhprc/reports/ingest/submission.html.
