Interested in developing a digital preservation plan, but
not quite sure where to start? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. The Northeast
Document Conservation Center has recently developed a Digital
Preservation Reading List. This annotated bibliography was developed “to
acquaint you with the challenges associated with developing a digital preservation
plan and repository, and successful strategies for overcoming those challenges.”
The bibliography begins with a broad overview of digital
preservation needs. It then delves into specifics such as strategies,
frameworks, file formats, metadata, curation, and more. It also takes into
consideration some of the ambiguity in terminology and includes items on
specific types of digital archives and repositories (such as Institutional Repositories,
Subject-Based Repositories, and Research Repositories).
