Subject: New list: Digital-Preservation

A new  email list digital--preservation has been
established on
jismail (successor to the UK Mailbase service).

This list will carry announcements and information
on activities
relevant to the  preservation and management of
digital materials in
the UK.  It will be used to disseminate information
on the work of
JISC Digital Preservation Focus, the Digital
Preservation Coalition
and related initiatives.

It is intended to be a moderated low-traffic
announcement and
current awareness list of selected key initiatives
and developments
in the field of digital preservation of interest to
archivists,
curators, data creators, librarians and records
managers both within
higher education and related sectors. Topics will
include: digital
archiving, management and preservation; electronic
records
management; emulation; migration; long-term access;
research
projects; national, international and institutional
initiatives in
relevant areas.

A small number of messages have already been posted
to the list and
are accessible from the list archive. The archive
and a joining the
list web-form is available at:
