== History ==
The first version of the SWORD [[Communications protocol|protocol]] was created in 2007 by a consortium of UK [[institutional repository]] experts. The project to develop SWORD was funded by the [[Joint Information Systems Committee|JISC]] and managed by [[UKOLN]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/repositories/digirep/index/SWORD_Project|title=SWORD Project - DigiRepWiki|website=www.ukoln.ac.uk}}</ref> An overview of the initial development of SWORD is given in "SWORD: Simple Web-service Offering Repository Deposit."<ref>

| accessdate = 2011-01-08}}</ref> The standard grew out of a need for an [[interoperability|interoperable]] method by which resources could be deposited into repositories. Interoperable standards existed to allow the harvesting of content (e.g. [[Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting]]) or for searching (e.g. [[OpenSearch]]) but not for deposit.
 
Between the original release in 2007, two subsequent projects were undertaken until 2009 to further refine the version 1.0 specification and perform advocacy work. The resulting release was numbered 1.3.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://swordapp.org/docs/sword-profile-1.3.html |title=SWORD APP Profile version 1.3 |website=swordapp.org |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090531061543/http://www.swordapp.org/docs/sword-profile-1.3.html |archive-date=2009-05-31}} </ref> Further descriptions of the work is available in Lewis et al., "If SWORD is the answer, what is the question? Use of the Simple Web service Offering Repository Deposit protocol."<ref>

In 2011 a new project began to extend the "fire and forget" approach of the SWORD 1.x specification into a full [[CRUD]] (Create, Retrieve, Update, Delete) interface, and the result was a new version (designated 2.0).<ref>{{cite web |url=https://swordapp.github.com/SWORDv2-Profile/SWORDProfile.html |title=SWORD 2.0 Profile |website=swordapp.github.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120901103523/http://swordapp.github.com/SWORDv2-Profile/SWORDProfile.html |archive-date=2012-09-01}} </ref> This was followed by extensive development work on client environments in several programming languages, and incorporation into the development of several [[Joint Information Systems Committee|Jisc]]-funded efforts.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://swordapp.org/2012/08/extending-dmponline-with-swordv2/|title = Extending DMPOnline with SWORDv2 – SWORD}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.dataflow.ox.ac.uk/ |title=DataFlow project |website=www.dataflow.ox.ac.uk |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111212055359/http://www.dataflow.ox.ac.uk/ |archive-date=2011-12-12}} </ref>
