Archiving and digital preservation -NISO Plus
Abstract
This session will look at the challenges and opportunities of archiving and digital preservation, including some recent efforts to bring the community together to address them. The digital preservation process begins with policy, risk assessment, and planning; NARA will share their initiatives and available resources. You'll learn about the NASIG Model Digital Preservation Policy and the challenges that led to its development. You’ll get the latest news about Project JASPER, an initiative to preserve open access journals (https://doaj.org/preservation/). You'll also hear about COPIM’s Work Package 7 on the archiving and preservation of open access books, specifically complex digital research outputs, or monographs.

The NISO Plus conference brings people together from across the global information community to share updates and participate in conversations about our shared challenges and opportunities. The focus is on identifying concrete next steps to improve information flow and interoperability, and help solve existing and potential future problems. Please join us to help address the key issues facing our community of librarians, publishers, researchers, and more — today and tomorrow!
