DPC is in the process of commissioning a second edition to its popular Technology Watch Report on the topic of 'Preservation Metdata' by Richard Gartner and Brian Lavoie.  This popular report was first published in 2005 and although it continues to be widely cited, the field has changed considerably since then.  The second edition of the report is due for completion in late 2012 and as with all reports will be subject to peer review. 

The Technology Watch Report Series is designed to meet the needs of members so, at this early stage, we are inviting comments from members on a draft outline of the report.  Comments, on any aspect of the report are welcome by 25th June if possible.  We're particularly keen to hear from people who have used or commented on the first edition recently.  The draft outline is available for members who need to Login or Register first, then access the draft outline.
