Über InterPARESTrust habe ich folgende Einladung erhalten, die ich gerne den deutschen Archivarinnen und Archivaren, die sich mit digitaler Langzeitarchivierung beschäftigen, bekannt gebe:
Dear Colleagues,
This is an invitation to participate in a study entitled „Software Preservation for Cultural Heritage.“ Our research is part of an IMLS-funded project to establish a Software Preservation Network. With this study, we want to better understand cultural heritage practices/experiences surrounding long-term preservation and access to digital primary resources stored in proprietary file formats. While the cultural heritage community has developed tools and workflows for bitstream preservation, the community lacks empirical data regarding the experiences and efforts of cultural heritage repositories to access material stored in proprietary file formats during appraisal, accessioning, description, and reference activities.
