Focusing on the inter-connected areas of management, technology and content the 'digital preservation triad' provides libraries, archives and museums with an useful model for approaching just about any type of digital preservation issue. -- Erik Mitchell, Associate University Librarian, Director of Digital Initiatives and Collaborative Services, University of California, Berkeley This very thorough and well researched book on digital preservation is for libraries, archives and museums of all sizes.

Digital preservation cannot be done in isolation from the rest of the organization; it needs to be an integral part of the whole. The authors demonstrate that with the proper resources and technical expertise, organizations can preserve "todays digital content long into the future." -- Chris Erickson, University Digital Preservation Officer Corrado and Moulaison Sandy provide a broad view of digital preservation, beyond the technical aspects of bit-level preservation, and capture expertly the interrelatedness of content, technology, and management. Digital Preservation for Libraries, Archives, and Museums is an essential resource for librarians, archivists, and curators involved in planning and managing digital preservation activities. Recommended for faculty and students in library and information science programs, especially for courses in digital libraries, digital preservation, digitization, and data curation. -- Krystyna Matusiak, Assistant Professor, Library and Information Science Program, University of Denver, "Corrado and Moulaison Sandy's work on digital preservation sheds new light on how to create and sustain a digital preservation program.

SynopsisThis new edition of Digital Preservation in Libraries, Archives, and Museums is the most current, complete guide to digital preservation available today. For administrators and practitioners alike, the information in this book is presented readably, focusing on management issues and best practices. Although this book addresses technology, it is not solely focused on technology. After all, technology changes and digital preservation is aimed for the long term. This is not a how-to book giving step-by-step processes for certain materials in a given kind of system. Instead, it addresses a broad group of resources that could be housed in any number of digital preservation systems. Finally, this book is about "things (not technology; not how-to; not theory) I wish I knew before I got started." Digital preservation is concerned with the life cycle of the digital object in a robust and all-inclusive way. Many Europeans and some North Americans may refer to digital curation to mean the same thing, taking digital preservation to be the very limited steps and processes needed to insure access over the long term. The authors take digital preservation in the broadest sense of the term: looking at all aspects of curating and preserving digital content for long term access. The book is divided into four part: 1.Situating Digital Preservation, 2.Management Aspects, 3.Technology Aspects, and 4.Content-Related Aspects. Digital Preservation will answer questions that you might not have even known you had, leading to more successful digital preservation initiatives., This new edition of Digital Preservation in Libraries, Archives, and Museums is the most current, complete guide to digital preservation available today.
