Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

Digital preservation is one of those phrases that means a lot to a few people and a little to a lot of people. It is often confused with digitization (preservation by digital), digital curation (of which preservation is a piece), digital asset management (another variant of digital curation), and so on. This talk will lay out the unique characteristics of digital preservation, as well as the practical applications. Expect to learn about recent developments in both the field and within the IU Libraries.
