Webinar: Implementing Sustainable Digital Preservation<br>
<br>
Webinar Date: Tuesday, October 22, 2013, 11:30am-12:30pm (EDT)<br>
<br>
There has been a lot of investment and activity in digital preservation over
the last decade and a lot of it has been supported by grant funded activity and
research projects. The ‘learn by doing’ approach and the prodigious
number of beta systems and project reports have all played their part in
helping to mature the digital preservation field - and judging by the changing
tone of conferences over the years, the community has come a long way. So far -
in fact - that a lot of organisations are now at the stage when theory is less
important than action. They need to work out the best implementation paths and
make procurement choices. <br>
<br>
So the economic landscape for digital preservation has shifted and the onus is
now on many organisations to look closely at their needs and their objectives
and to make investment choices that are sustainable as part of the business
needs of their organisation rather than as an adjunct activity that is
supported by ‘soft’ research money. Work being taken forward by the
4C Project is looking at providing resources to support organisations to make
sustainable digital preservation investment choices and this webinar will
describe some of that work. <br>
<br>
But budgets are hard to secure and digital preservation remains a difficult
case to argue so collaboration with like-minded organisations and the
establishment of shared services should support the arguments and drive down
the cost. This is one of the core messages that underpins the Aligning National
Approaches to Digital Preservation (ANADP) initiative and this will also be
described and explained during the webinar.<br>
