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.

While it offers a new approach of thinking about h digital preservation, the authors emphasize that it is not a how-to guide: Corrado and Moulaison take a broader approach, structuring the book according to different activities digital archivists engage in. Throughout the book, Corrado and Moulaison exemplify their arguments by presenting current best practices. The management section is predominantly concerned with institutional regulations, human resources, financial aspects, and organization. In the technology section, the authors present a variety of formats and guidelines, and provide an in-depth discussion of metadata and its importance for digital preservation. Finally, in a section on content, Corrado and Moulaison discuss various kinds of data and content – such as science and humanities data – and what archivists need to take into account when dealing with each type.

Title A name given to the resource Issues in Digital Preservation Description An account of the resource This is a presentation by Covey to Carnegie Mellon University. She writes that in order to make a digital copy, one must have considered digital preservation and copyright law. If something is out of copyright, it can be copied. If the owner of the copyright or the law permits it, it can be copied. Any other copying infringes on copyright. Preservation of digital copies entails best practices in scanning, storage of master files, backup copies in multiple locations, and consideration of format changes. When using copyright protected material by permission, the publisher and source must be stated, as well as the fact that work is the author's version. Covey calls for civil disobedience and moral courage as she hopes to provide open access to university materials, including dissertations and lectures. However, she says that few have contributed due to a lack of awareness, reward, and time from faculty, as well as negative attitudes of peers. She also feels that people’s misconceptions about copyright are to blame. Many faculty members do not understand copyright and they do not want to lose control of their own work.

Title A name given to the resource Acquiring Copyright Permission to Digitize and Provide Open Access to Books Subject The topic of the resource Copyright Description An account of the resource Scholarly communications librarian Denise Troll Covey elaborates the difficulties and challenges of digitizing and providing access to books. Reporting on three separate studies sponsored wholly or in part by the Carnegie Mellon University Libraries, Covey cites the labor and time intensive work behind securing publisher and author permissions for not merely digitizing, but also providing access to previously printed works. Despite the open access initiatives by scholars and international consortium, such as the Budapest Open Access Initiative in 2002,she reports fewer than half of the targeted collections become available to the public. While continuing to encourage and promote efforts to secure copyright permissions for digitizing and publishing books, Covey acknowledges current U.S. copyright laws must be changed and advocates lobbying legislative officials to develop both laws and technologies that do not impinge upon the public's right to know. Notwithstanding recent measures to curtail "copyright misuse" (overly restrictive practices by copyright holders), Covey notes that legal protection for creative expression and doctrines such as Fair Use and library copying privileges have weakened in response to aggressive publisher and author tactics to secure and restrict access to digitized books. One solution for scholarly institutions countering restricted access has been to create institutional repositories. Although these measures facilitate research and scholarly exchange, they do not meet the larger public's rights to information and creative expression. As each of the Carnegie Mellon studies reveal, the status of copyright permission for digitizing individual books is often unknown or unattainable, erring on the conservative side and therefore, rendering such books unavailable. Covey provides sources for locating copyright status and suggests diplomatic means for requesting and securing rights to digitize and make available previously printed books.

Title A name given to the resource Building Relationships: "A Foundation for Digital Archives" Description An account of the resource This article asks if it is worth the time and resources to collaborate with other digital archives. It explores six digital archives that were funded through the Library of Congress’ National Digital Information Infrastructure and Preservation Program to collaborate with each other. Building relationships amongst archivists is time-consuming. The most important factor in these relationships is trust. However, the experience shows that the benefits of collaboration far outweigh the costs. Collaboration allows professionals to work from a common knowledge base. It creates better relationships with data providers and software developers. And it allows for networked collections with common standards. Similarly, often, digital archives have certain strengths and weaknesses that complement each other. Working together allows digital archives to accomplish much more than if they were working alone. For these reasons, the authors argue that collaboration is essential to any digital archiving project.

Title A name given to the resource Digital Curation/Digital Archiving: A View from the National Archives of Australia Description An account of the resource Cunningham avers that digital archiving, digital curation, digital libraries, and digital museums are distinctly different functions despite the common conflation of the terms by the public. In this article, he argues that digital archiving should begin with a systematic method for capturing and preserving data before the receiving institution ingests the items. By taking a preventative approach to data loss, the digital archivist must work closely with government and business institutions as part of an information management workflow. Cunningham credits the National Australian Archives for having the foresight and initiative to propose recordkeeping standards and protocols for digital archiving, and most significantly, for asserting that digital archives should not focus their expertise on the digital object or end product. Rather, digital archivists should focus on preserving the historical context and manner in which the content was presented. By advocating the use of open source software and other standards ensuring cross-platform flexibility, the Australian archivists aligned the ideals of preservation with the performative function and accessibility of the content. Preserving the long-term accessibility and context of the items ensured greater accuracy and evidentiary value than strictly focusing on the preservation and migration of digital objects. Abstract A summary of the resource. This paper considers similarities and differences among the concepts of digital curation, digital archives, and digital libraries. It argues that, from a recordkeeping perspective, the phrase digital archive has been misused, even hijacked, and that this misuse obscures fundamental issues associated with the capture and long-term management of archival resources. The paper also argues that digital archiving requires active archival intervention across the entire records continuum, and that, as such, the Open Archival Information System (OAIS) reference model is deficient because it ignores the need for pre-ingest archival activity.

Instructional methods include all aspects of the instruction and learning processes from planning and implementation through evaluation and feedback. This article asserts digital archivists must become involved in the creation and management of digital data as part of the preservation workflow. It is an important reminder, that not only did the National Australian Archives present international metadata standards and protocols for preserving the presentation and context of historic items, they established a just cause for focusing on and overseeing the entire life cycle of digital content. Additionally, the article defines the skills and education needed for expanding the archivist’s responsibilities from print management to digital workflows.

Description An account of the resource Archives are collections of primary sources, cataloged and grouped for the purpose of preserving and making accessible the records of society’s cultural and historic heritage. Laura Millar, noted archivist and author of Archives principles and practices, defines the mission of archives “to acquire, preserve and make available the documentary memory of society…”(Millar 2010). These entries will focus on the explanation and description of an archive and why they are important to society. What does it mean to be an archive and what is the value of an archive?

Title A name given to the resource Digital Curation/Digital Archiving: A View from the National Archives of Australia Subject The topic of the resource Archives Description An account of the resource This article discusses the importance of differentiating between the terms digital archiving and digital curation and explains how the obfuscation of these phrases can limit the necessary resources that must be given to digital archiving practices. Cunningham expresses a frustration with the way that many use digital archiving and curation interchangeably. According to Cunningham, digital curation is a term that is used to connect different professions relating to the collection or preservation of digital information. These can include data management, digital librarianship, and digital archiving. However, the constant use of this umbrella term undermines the important differences between the fields of work. Digital libraries and museums focus on the acquiring and displaying of digital texts. Whereas, digital archives prioritize the collection of information, providing the context of this information, and documenting the relationships between the material in the collection. Because of these priorities, digital archivists must intervene in the “creation and management” of digital files, rather than just accumulating existing information. Cunningham uses the National Archives of Australia (NAA) to demonstrate the level of intervention that is necessary. The NAA utilized assistance from the Australian government to establish standards for digital archives and provided long-term training for existing archivists in using emerging computer technologies. These all functioned to create a more efficient and effective archiving system.
