This collection represents the delicate balance digital archivists seek when designing an archive that preserves and provides access, while also ensuring all parties' right to privacy and intellectual property. Also known as risk management, archives must anticipate potential infringements of intellectual property and privacy rights, and guard the public's right to free and open access. Items in the collection address risk management issues and underscore the necessity for keeping current in legal and ethical archival practices.

Ethics in Archives: How Special Collections Protects Your Privacy
Subject
The topic of the resource
Archives
Description
An account of the resource
This online journal is informing towards understanding ethics in archives. The journal goes into the importance and process that archivists go through to respecting data in already existing collections. Privacy plays a grand part in ethics especially since it is the focus of maintaining collections private information. Without this sort of etiquette in archives there would be accessed data that would not be protected which allows for threats to cross over and cause problems. Yet the journal goes into demonstrating that each institution has different interpretations of ethics in their collections. Jessica Serrao presents this information through this known process in special collections through her own experience. The process is a constant reminder of what it takes to maintain and protect security data in collections. It is explained thoroughly by explaining the importance of each document that is viewed as containing valuable information. It is important for documents to go through this process so they can be removed or kept in the collections. The journal also summarizes The Richardson Papers Case where a professor’s files contained valuable students’ private information that were at risk of exposure.
Privacy is a crucial topic that is constantly ignored in Ethics. Ethics does not limit the privacy of historical or present records, which should be concerning since it allows personal information in collections to be accessed.

Description
An account of the resource
This conference by Meyer et al discusses the concept of digital archive building and the best methods to, “search for an applicable and adequate data or document model [and] software tools which meets the requirements” (Meyer et al) of making digital library applications. Within their conference, they explained how there is not an ideal document model or system, there is not a “one-size-fits-all” (Meyer et al), but that each document model or system is unique to the information that is being digitally archived. This conference goes in-depth on the technical implementation of aspects of a digital archive, factors that will ultimately determine the sustainability and the maintenance of the archive. These ideas are all included within the “digital archive project DARL (Digitales Archiv Rostocker Liederbuch, engl.)” (Meyer et al).
I found the information found within this conference pertinent to the overall understanding of a digital archive. I think that it can be easy to lose sight of how archives, while they have the same goal and purpose, are all unique and, thus, made differently. Understanding how an archive is made is extremely important and this resource helps readers to understand the technical side of design decisions that impact an archive in big ways.

Copyright
Description
An account of the resource
The author of this book goes over some of the history of copyright and some of the current existing laws. He explains that under the current laws of the U.S., securing a copyright doesn't require publication, registration, or any other action in the U.S. Copyright Office. Instead, copyright protection is secured automatically upon the creation of a work. Copyright protection is available to original works of authorship, such as musical works, sound recordings, photographs, literary works, movies, television, and software. The owner of a copyright has certain exclusive rights, such as selling the work, performing the work publicly, reproducing the work, and creating derivative works. The copyright owner can also transfer ownership of the work, whether by complete transfer or by granting a license. He explains information about how to secure a copyright and the advantages of registration with the Copyright Office. He also gives advice on the legal aspect of how to do this properly and offers where to get help in doing this.

Copyright
Description
An account of the resource
The author talks about one of the most controversial questions in copyright law today concerns the proper scope of protection for unpublished works, a few examples of these are letters, diaries, journals, reports, and/or drafts that the owner of it may publish in the future. He stands by his statement that the question does not become whether or not it has the ability to be copyrighted, but rather it's more about whether the work should be given stronger copyright protection than published or widely disseminated works? The interest in this topic causes the author to talk about several cases, like Harper and Row vs. Nation Enterprises.

Description
An account of the resource
The following article goes into detail regarding a study that was conducted to “the challenges of preserving information in the digital age, and explores how this may affect the future of historical knowledge.” The study itself is the result of “a series of semi-structured interviews with forty-one historians, archivists, librarians, and web researchers.” That said, it is important to keep in mind that the results as whole argue against historical records having association with the term ‘digital black hole’ in both connotative and denotative meanings. Instead, its focus should center on “the importance of the issue for the future of history, and the complexity of the solutions to be adopted.” Especially in regard to education, planning, as well as the cooperation between historians and the information professions. For instance, many of the issues revolve around things like certain hardware and software being out of date and current law(s) make it very hard for memory institutions to not only capture but preserve digital material. Then there’s the preexisting legal framework which does not reflect the “digital age”. Not to mention, challenges within social and cultural domains. That’s why trying to figure out the answer to questions like “What can be done today to ensure future historians will have access to a rich historical record so they can tell the story of our time to future generations?"

Preservation Methods for Digital Library
Description
An account of the resource
The following article goes into the importance digitization of artifacts for future use partly as a way to minimize damaging materials that have already sustained a considerable amount of external or internal wear and tear as a result of being handled. And partly because of the imaging process, which is already demanding on its own; but the fact that it “must be done with oversight by preservation staff and with a high enough level of quality to ensure the reusability of the archival electronic file for as long as possible.” That said, the key focus will be on “the scope and needs of digital preservation, and various types of available preservation methods.” Preceded by approaches that can help a person when encountering technological issues. As a result of information and communication technology altering the ways in which teaching and scholarly research is done. Especially when considering that “digital information and resources through scholarships are in so many different ways that often we struggle to clearly identify the impact and articulate the implications.” What’s more, Libraries who themselves are a source of information have increased the amount of digital information they have “both as supplements to and parallels of print material.”

Description
An account of the resource
Colin Meddings of Oxford University Press conducted research within the academic library community on digital preservation and what their opinions were regarding the matter. Specifically focusing on digital preservation in term of “the preservation of electronic scholarly literature with the goal of ensuring materials remain accessible to future scholars, researchers, and students.” As a means of building “on and complement recent research done by the Association of Learned and Professional Society Publishers (ALPSP) into publisher strategies for preservation.” That said, the basis of the survey involved librarians from across the world sharing information on what it is their libraries doing “in regard to digital preservation, as well as opinions on digital preservation issues.” As a result of that, findings have shown that the situation around digital preservation is an ongoing evolution, highlighting the need for additional/continuous education on digital preservation issues. Due to the fact that, the number of online journals is equal to or less than the ever-present changes in the journals supply, content licensed in an electronic format among other things. What’s more, “Digital preservation is sometimes a function of libraries, sometimes of publishers, a combination of the two, or done by a third party on behalf of both.”

Subject

Curation
Description
An account of the resource
The focus of this article is to help eliminate several of the limitations that a traditional print has by providing a new model that suits the digital age. All the while giving readers the chance to participate in an active role regarding their own texts. Not only that, discussions on possibilities as well as prospects for the apparatus criticus regarding text editing and ways to easily access some of the benefits digital scholarships provides. That said, the author starts off by explaining an apparatus criticus and how most don’t even read them by comparing it to how people (usually college students when doing research papers) don’t check let alone read footnotes. So, to change that and get more readers engaged, the author proposes a way to fix that by outlining “what editors and readers can gain from a fundamentally new approach to the apparatus criticus.” In other words, the author wants to “somehow to record every little detail but only to confront the reader with the most important points.” The only problem with that is not every (print) editor does things the same way, some might put only what’s considered important while the rest is in the appendix. As a result, the author will show how he is able to go around that through an explained model throughout the rest of the article.

Description
An account of the resource
Nicholas Tanzi wrote a book to assist librarians on how to teach others to use the digital repositories and digital materials in the libraries database. Much like UCF’s library, most libraries have their entire collection online where you can request a book if you want to. Libraries also have a purely digital collection where the originals are too old and fragile to be held or used, so a digital form is a better option unless you specifically need the original. Besides the physical change of the libraries and archives, people have to adapt to a digital age as well. Tanzi found that librarians were having difficulty teaching their visitors on how to use the digital archives and search engine as they didn’t understand it themselves. Tanzi provides easy terms and ways to use with visitors so that the process doesn’t get confusing. Another aspect that Tanzi focuses on is how to help visitors who had a bad experience prior. This can be an issue because this can make visitors unwilling to adapt, so creating a good experience for every visitor is crucial.
Tanzi’s book provides a teaching strategy to use for everyday people who come into the library looking for a book, movie, audio clip, etc. It’s important to assist our community in adapting to a digital age

This journal article dissects the experiences and professional lessons absorbed through the development and planning of the University of Maryland Archive, implemented by the Health Sciences and Human Services Library (HS/HSL) at the University of Maryland. It delves into the archive’s historical background, beginning from the decisions made by the executive director of the Health Sciences and Human Services Library to commit staff and university resources to the creation and expansion of a digital repository purposed for the collection, preservation, and distribution of the university’s academic works, which included research reports, newsletters, meeting presentations, posters, among other visual and textual records. The article includes a developed project timeline with accompanying deliverables set in accordance to the goals and objectives of the project. It explores the technology implemented to achieve the maximum user appeal and functionality, reviewing institutional repository websites and actively seeking user feedback. Banners, attachments, and other visual customizations were incorporated into the archive by the project team, as well as auto-complete features for basic searches and advanced search options to augment user experience and commodity. It also documents the process of metadata management, digitization, licensing, and the development of a budget for its costs and the inclusion of additional staff for its upkeep.
