Description

Within his article “Digital Curation/Digital Archiving: A View from the National Archives of Australia,” Adrian Cunningham tackles the true definition of the term digital archive. Bringing in a perspective from the National Archives of Australia (NAA), Cunningham shares his hands-on experience of working as an archivist. There are three main messages Cunningham aims to get across, which are: the difference between curation and archiving, the difference between digital archives and digital libraries/museum, and the need for archival intervention.
