Announcement of publication:

"Web Cultural Heritage : Culture 2000 project 25. 9. 2005 - 24. 9. 2006"
National Library of the Czech Republic (Publ.)
Prague 2006, 30 p., 12 ill.
ISBN 80-7050-512-5
Free of charge.


"In the frame of European Commission Programmes, CULTURE 2000 Framework
Programme provides support  for Culture heritage projects involving
cooperation of European partners. Czech Republic, together  with three
co-organisers from Estonia, Slovakia and Slovenia were successful in
obtaining the Commi ssion support for their one-year project application
titled Web Cultural Heritage <http://www.webar chiv.cz/culture-2000> aimed
at the selection criteria issues. The idea of the project leader, the N
ational Library of the Czech Republic, was to find some partners with
different level of experience
 and using different methods for preserving their national digital
cultural heritage.

Project duration: September 25, 2005 - September 24, 2006

Partnership: Project team was built of three national and one research
libraries from four European
 countries having more or less experience with the web archiving issues.

Project leader:
- National Library of the Czech Republic <http://www.nkp.cz/> as a project
leader started its own w eb archiving project in 2000 (WebArchiv
<http://en.webarchiv.cz>).

Co-organisers:

- National Library of Estonia <http://www.nlib.ee/> started project called
Eric@ in 2000. The main  aim was collecting and archiving Estonian online
monographs.

- National and University Library in Ljubljana, Slovenia
<http://www.nuk.uni-lj.si/> was working on
 the project aimed at the development of a national repository for
long-term preservation of Sloven
ian web and electronic resources by Slovenian authors.

- University Library in Bratislava, Slovakia <http://www.ulib.sk/> was
interested in web archiving  but had no experience before; it was
participating in several preservation projects aimed at digita l objects
born by digitization.

Partners:

- As for information technologies application, institutions supporting the
Czech web archiving for  some years, i.e. Moravian Library and Institute
of Computer Science of Masaryk University were enga ged in the project.
They provided hosting, administration and maintenance services for systems
need ed for successful project completion -  project website, Heritrix
crawler instance used for harvest ing sample web pages, database of
harvested web pages and other products.

- The last official partner was the Jozef Stefan Institute in Ljubljana
(Slovenia), provider of Web Bird crawler application.


Aims and mission of the project

Selection principles may vary between countries; the main criteria for
deciding what digital materi als to keep should be their significance and
lasting cultural, scientific, evidential or other valu e. Selection
decisions and any subsequent reviews need to be carried out in an
accountable manner,  and be based on defined principles, policies,
procedures and standards.


Activities

The main aim of this project was to create a selection guideline as a best
practice applicable in a ny (not only European) country. The problem
solving was divided into some procedures:

1.	Analysis of existing methods of selection policy in North-Western
Europe, North America, Austral ia and New Zealand, Asia (in particular
Japan and China);
2.	Mapping and analysis of software tools and workflows used for
downloading and indexing the Inter net resources to digital archive in
accordance with proposed selection policies; 3.	Analysis of the existing
selection criteria applied in the four participating countries: a) auto
mated harvest, b) selective approach;
4.	Adopting and adjustment of chosen software tools to the common
requirements; 5.	Testing set of 120 websites (30 URLs - national domains
chosen by each country) using adopted so ftware tools (3 types of
harvesters);
6.	Evaluation of harvesting results;
7.	New selection criteria proposals based on the performed analyses and
testing; 8.	Presentation of the project results at the occasion of IWAW
2006 in Alicante, Spain; 9.	All results have been made available at the
project website: <http://www.webarchiv.cz/culture-20 00>

5. Study on rights in the PREMIS data model report

Message forwarded from padiforum-l.
_____Forward header_____
From: gclifton at nla.gov.au
Date: 01/05/07 12:14am
Subject: Rights in the PREMIS data model report

[Apologies for cross posting]

------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Library of Congress' Network Development and MARC Standards Office is
pleased to announce the availability of a study written by Karen Coyle on
how rights information needed for digital preservation
activities is handled in the PREMIS data dictionary.

The Preservation Metadata: Implementation Strategies (PREMIS) Working
Group developed the Data Dictionary for Preservation Metadata, which is a
specification containing a set of "core" preservation metadata
elements that has broad applicability within the digital preservation
community.  It constructed a data model that defined entities involved in
the preservation process  and their relationships.  One of the
entities in this data model is rights statements, which specify terms and
conditions for using the objects in a preservation repository.  The PREMIS
Working Group chose to consider only rights required for
preservation activities in scope for its work, rather than rights for
access.  Because of the ambiguity of the laws concerning intellectual
property rights and the complexity in  the roles that institutions play in
digital preservation in relation to access, it was difficult for the
Working Group to thoroughly cover all information needed about rights to
preserve in the data dictionary.

The Library of Congress, as part of the PREMIS maintenance activity,
commissioned Karen Coyle to provide this study to assist the newly
established PREMIS Editorial Committee, in consultation with the PREMIS
Implementers Group, with its first revision of the data dictionary and
schemas.  The intention is to improve the specification so that
institutions trying to assess their rights to preserve materials in
digital formats will be able to provide enough information in their
digital repositories to make such assessments about their materials over
time. In this study Karen Coyle reviews the landscape of digital rights,
analyzes various preservation rights scenarios and the sorts of
preservation actions that digital repositories might take, relates
copyright law to preservation actions, and provides recommendations for
revision where the data dictionary needs expansion.

Rights in the PREMIS Data Model is available at:

6. Report of the East of England Digital Preservation Project

Message forwarded from the UK digital-preservation-list
_____Forward header_____
Date:    Thu, 4 Jan 2007 07:54:46 -0000
From:    Najla Semple <najla at dpconline.org>
Subject: Report of the East of England Digital Preservation Project

I would like to draw the attention of members of the list to a very
interesting report: The Report of the East of England Digital
Preservation Project.

This has been published jointly by the East of England Regional Archive
Council (EERAC) and MLA East of England.

The report describes a pilot project designed to investigate the issues
which would need to be resolved if a regional digital repository were set
up, and the costs which would arise from this. The report presents the
results of two years' work and is probably the first realistic attempt to
point the way forward.

Taking as its starting point the anticipated needs of local authorities,
the report looks in detail at the processes and costs involved in
preserving and managing digital records of the types routinely dealt with
by local authority records managers and archivists, including privately
deposited material. The two local authorities involved in the project were
Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire County Councils, and the expertise in
digital preservation was provided by the UK Data Archive at the University
of Essex, which is one of the longest established digital repositories in
the country and the only one approved by TNA for the deposit of electronic
Public Records.

Copies of the report are available by post by emailing your name address
to HYPERLINK
"mailto:info at mlaeastofengland.org.uk"info at mlaeastofengland.org.uk. It is
also available to download at HYPERLINK
