Recharacterizing files at scale to align with the latest tools and best practice. Digital Preservation is a continuous and dynamic set of activities.

Academic libraries are in the midst of rapid, widespread changes as it shifts into the digital age. Changing user needs and rising technology demands have set the pace for the new norm: more efficient electronic resources, cost reduction methods, and cataloging support. These institutions surely weathered the pandemic’s storm, keeping communities connected even when doors were closed, but what it inevitably revealed is how preserving the world’s digital memory has never been more important.

The terms Digital Asset Management and Digital Preservation are often seen as two sides of the same coin. As disciplines and technologies they are quite different, performing distinct but complementary roles. When used in combination they can lead to greater long-term brand value and asset reuse.

In some ways, 2021 already seems like a distant memory as we find ourselves a few months into 2022. But here at Preservica, we’re just reflecting on 2021 now as we wrap up our fiscal calendar in March. Even though we’re a few months in, we’d be remiss not to step back and reflect on the year’s serious driving power that set Preservica up for more big things in 2022.

At recent conferences there has been a lot of talk about whether formats really do become obsolete (see for example [link] and thus whether the research that has taken place to address such obsolescence is actually needed? In this posting, I'll address both these questions. Do formats become obsolete? To address the first question we first need to ask ourselves what does an "obsolete" format really mean?

Interesting view from Unesco about the economics of open source for a fully functioning OAIS digital preservation solution. Unesco is a big supporter of open source but it notes that when there is a need for a fully integrated standards based system for storage and management suitable for long term access an open source solution requires significant financial resource.
