Staying on TRAC: Digital Preservation Implications & Solutions for Collaboratives
San Jose, CA
When it comes to developing a long-term digital preservation program, knowledge is power. That is why BCR and LYRASIS have partnered to bring you the Staying on TRAC: Digital Preservation Implications & Solutions for Collaboratives (formerly the Digital Preservation for Digital Collaboratives Workshop).
Using CRL/OCLC Trustworthy Repositories Audit and Certification: Criteria and Checklist (TRAC) as the foundation, the workshop will provide you with the information and tools you need to plan, assess, and outline a digital preservation plan for sustaining collaboratively generated digital content.
Workshop attendees will explore implemented solutions including ExLibris’ Rosetta, OCLC’s Digital Archive, Tessella’s Safety Deposit Box, Chronopolis from University of California San Diego, Educopia Institute’s MetaArchive, and DAITTS from Florida Center for Library Automation.
The workshop will consist of the following webinars and in-person session:
1st webinar, July 13, 1-3 pm ET:
• Introduction to the Digital Preservation Landscape
• Digital Preservation Standards
2nd webinar, July 14, 1-3 pm ET:
• Sustaining the Digital Investment: Developing a Digital Preservation Program
3rd webinar, July 16, 1-3 pm ET:

LYRASIS will provide post-workshop webinars and support to assist collaborative teams in completing their preservation plans.
BONUS: Five collaboratives who complete their plans will be selected for an onsite digital preservation readiness assessment. Each assessment will be conducted by two of the faculty members.
