Excerpt from DPC Annual Report 2008-2009

The Museums Libraries and Archives Council chiefly funds digital preservation activities for the sector through Collections Trust and UKOLN. The goals of our work are consistent throughout all the projects that we fund: to promote awareness of digital preservation issues in the sector and to ensure that, where possible, the digital activities funded by MLA have a digital preservation strategy built into them.

In the past 12 months our work has chiefly been channelled through the Collections Trust and includes:

  • Development of a Digital Preservation strategy for the London 2012 People’s Record project (ongoing)
  • Development of a Digital Preservation strategy for culture-sector metadata under the Culture Grid project (ongoing, due to launch in September ’09)
  • Participation in the National Archives discussion about Digital Preservation and Web Archiving (ongoing)
  • Discussions with OCLC and CILIP about Digital Preservation as part of library digitisation workflows (ongoing)
  • Collections Trust representing MLA at European Commission Member States Expert Group discussions on Digital Preservation strategies in the EU and for Europeana (ongoing)
