Tájékoztatásul. Külön felhívom a figyelmet a 4. pontban
lévő Library of Congress hírre, amely nagyon egybevág
a Networkshop-on előadott javaslatra. Ennek elindulásával
valószínűleg az új minisztériumok megalakulásáig várnunk
kell, hiszen addig ilyen szinten döntések, hivatalos
lépések nemigen várhatóak. Pedig amint az LC hír mutatja,
megy az idő :-(

Data Dictionary for Preservation Metadata: PREMIS Tutorial
July 17th-18th, 2006
Wolfson Medical Building, University of Glasgow
http://www.dcc.ac.uk/events/premis-2006/
The Digital Curation Centre is pleased to announce that it will be
delivering a two-day tutorial to introduce the PREMIS preservation
metadata data dictionary. This event will be held at the Wolfson Medical
Building at the University of Glasgow on 17th and 18th of July, 2006.
Metadata can play a vital role in enabling the effective management,
discovery, and re-usability of digital information. Preservation
metadata provides provenance information, documents preservation
activity, identifies technical features, and aids in verifying the
authenticity of a digital object. The PREMIS Working Group released its
Data Dictionary for Preservation metadata in June 2005
(http://www.oclc.org/research/projects/pmwg/premis-final.pdf). This is a
core set of metadata elements recommended for use in all preservation
repositories regardless of the type of materials archived and the
preservation strategies employed.
Benefits of Attendance:
This tutorial will be of benefit to individuals and institutions that are
interested in implementing PREMIS metadata for the long-term
curation and preservation of their digital information.
Dates:
This tutorial will be held on Monday July 17th and Tuesday July 18th, 2006.
Format
The tutorial will cover both the PREMIS Data Dictionary and practical
implementation issues. It will provide a walk-through of the data
dictionary on July 17th and focus on XML rendering on July 18th. Both
days will include hands-on exercises. The event will also allow PREMIS
implementers an opportunity to share their experiences via short case
studies.
Tutorial Sessions include:
-Introduction to the PREMIS Object Model
-Walk through PREMIS Objects, Events, Rights and Agents
-Implementation issues
-XML Schemas for representing Data Dictionary elements
-Real-life examples of implementation from UK institutions
Venue
This event will be held at the Wolfson Medical Building, University of
Glasgow. Travel information, campus and city maps may be found at
http://www.gla.ac.uk/general/maps/index.html.
Registration
http://www.dcc.ac.uk/events/premis-2006/
Participants can also register for a practical hands-on session tutorial.
Please note that due to limited space in the computer lab, the XML
rendition practical is limited to a maximum of 25 participants at a time.
Associate Network Members Ł100
Non-Members Ł150
Membership of the DCC Associates Network is free and more information on
becoming a member can be found at http://www.dcc.ac.uk/network.html.

LIBRARY LAUNCHES WEB SITE DEVOTED=20
TO EFFORT TO CAPTURE WEB SITES FOR PRESERVATION
The Library of Congress has just launched a Web site devoted to
information about its program to capture and preserve historically
important Web sites so that they can be accessed by future generations of
users.
The site is available at www.loc.gov/webcapture.=20
The Library of Congress and libraries and archives around the world are
interested in collecting and preserving content on the Web because an
ever-increasing amount of the world's cultural and intellectual output is
created in digital formats and does not exist in any physical form.
Creating an archives of Web sites supports the goals of the Library's
Digital Strategic Plan, announced in March 2003, which focuses on the
collection and management of digital content.
The Web Capture Program is directly related to the Library's larger
digital preservation program, called the National Digital Information
Infrastructure and Preservation Program (www.digitalpreservation.gov).=20
The subject areas in which the Library has been collecting Web sites
include recent Supreme Court nominations; Hurricane Katrina; and the papal
transition following the death of John Paul II. Current collecting
projects include the crisis in Darfur, Sudan; the Iraq War; and the
upcoming Election 2006.
The Library collects Web sites only after it has received formal
permission from Web site content owners to do so.
Some of the Web sites captured by the Library and its partners are
currently available by accessing the "Projects" section of the site. As
part of the Web Capture Program, the "Technical Background" section of the
Web site notes that the Library, in conjunction with its partners, is
working on developing a common set of Web capture tools in four areas:
curator selection, verification and permissions; acquisition; collection
storage and maintenance; and access.

The British Library has announced a new web page with information

NEW PRESERVATION WEB PAGES
CAMF (Cellulose Acetate Microfilm Forum) WEB PAGES
Since 2002, the British Library and the Library of Congress have been
taking a lead on addressing the difficulties associated with cellulose
acetate microfilm collections. Together with other leading institutions,
four International Round-Tables on preservation
microfilm have been convened, to facilitate the sharing of knowledge
and experience and to try to agree a united approach to a common
problem.
The first International Round-Table was convened at the British Library in
London in December 2002, at which were present representatives of major
research libraries and leading microfilm producers. Conducted under
Chatham House Rules, its members were able to discuss openly the
situations in their own institutions and meeting produced a set of "St
Pancras Principles" for agreeing a way forward.
A second International Round-Table was convened in Washington at the
Library of Congress in March 2004. Members updated each other on
progress they had made in managing their acetate collections and/or plans
they were putting in place in response to the problems identified. One of
the actions of this meeting was that the British Library would host an
international conference the following Spring, in order to widen the
debate and to encourage discussion and collaboration. The conference
(CAMF) took place in May 2005, preceded by the third International
Round-Table.
The British Library has dedicated several pages on its Collection Care web
site to provide access to the papers and reports associated with the
Round-Tables and to the presentations and proceedings of the conference.
The proceedings of the fourth International Round-Table, which was
convened at Princeton University, New Jersey on May 5th 2006, will be
incorporated soon.
The CAMF website, which will be maintained and updated by the British
Library, can be found at

Subject: New OCLC Report: College Students' Perceptions of Libraries and
Information Resources
OCLC has just published College Students' Perceptions of Libraries and
Information Resources as a c ompanion piece to the December 2005 OCLC
Perceptions of Libraries and Information Resources report.
This report to the OCLC membership summarizes the findings from the 396
college students who partic ipated in the survey. The college students
range in age from 15 to 57, are either undergraduate or graduate
students, and were from all of the six countries included in the survey.
Responses from U. S. 14- to 17-year-old participants have also been
included to provide contrast and comparison with the college students, as
these young people are potential college attendees. With all-new graphs
and additional analysis of how college student data compare to that of
total re spondents, this report provides findings from the online survey
in an effort to learn more about: a.. Library use
b.. Awareness and use of library electronic resources
c.. The Internet search engine, the library and the librarian
d.. Free vs. for-fee information
e.. The "Library" brand

7. UNESCO World Day for Audiovisual Heritage - Public consultation launched

Subject: UNESCO World Day for Audiovisual Heritage - Public consultation
launched
UNESCO has launched a public consultation on the objectives,
practicalities, costs and expected results of a "World Day for Audiovisual
Heritage" to be celebrated annually on 27 October to build global
awareness of the various issues at stake in preserving the audiovisual
heritage.
In response to a proposal by the Czech Republic in October 2005, UNESCO's
General Conference approved the proclamation of 27 October as the annual
World Day for Audiovisual Heritage. The World Day for Audiovisual Heritage
can be a means of building global awareness of the various issues at stake
in preserving the audiovisual heritage. In accordance with normal
practice, a feasibility study has been commenced to test the objectives,
practicalities, costs and expected results of such an annual commemoration.
The date is significant. On 27 October 1980, the General Conference
adopted the "Recommendation for the safeguarding and preservation of
moving images", the first international instrument to declare the cultural
and historical importance of film and television recordings, and calling
for decisive steps to ensure their preservation.
In today's digital age, that call is going out to an even wider spectrum.
More recent initiatives, such as the "World Appeal for the Preservation of
Broadcast Heritage" (initiated by the International Federation of
Television Archives) - which has so far garnered over 10,000 signatures -
will also be embraced in the feasibility study.
Public consultation is a crucial part of the feasibility study, and it is
open to everyone. UNESCO has therefore established an online platform with
background documents, a public forum and a questionnaire. You can access
full details via this link:
