Digital preservation has become a critical issue for institutions of all sizes but until recently has mostly been the preserve of national archives and libraries with the resources, time and specialist knowledge available to experiment. As the discipline matures and practical tools and information are increasingly available the barriers to entry are falling for smaller organizations which can realistically start to take active steps towards a preservation strategy. However, the sheer volume of technical information now available on the subject is becoming a significant obstacle and a straightforward guide is required to offer clear and practical solutions. Each chapter covers the essential building blocks of digital preservation strategy and implementation, leading the reader through the process. International case studies from organizations such as the Wellcome Library, Central Connecticut State University Library in the USA and Gloucestershire Archives in the UK illustrate how real organizations have approached the challenges of digital preservation."--Publisher description. 650 0 $a Digital preservation. 650 0 $a Digital libraries. 650 0 $a Electronic information resources. 650 0 $a Libraries $x Electronic information resources. $x Electronic information resources. 650 0 $a Preservation of materials. 650 0 $a Information storage and retrieval systems. 941 $a 6 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20240724071747.0 952 $l LVOX826 $d 20220318014028.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214015508.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826073529.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20140917012035.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20131112022434.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E6266454E2DC11E284C630D7DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
