Office Hours.

I will be in my office after class 2:00 to 3:00 and possibly later (depending upon meetings) most Tuesdays and Thursdays. Please feel free to drop by for random or chance meetings, or send me an e-mail message for a more definite scheduling opportunity. If door is closed, just knock unless there is a sign otherwise. I am on a lot of campus committees and a wide range of projects, all of which have seemingly endless meetings on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. Just because I am not in my office does not mean I am not on campus. If I am not available when you try to see me, please send an email. Also, feel free to call me at home in the evening. Please contact Carolyn for appointment times if you want to consult with her.

Course Timeline.

Brief Course Description.

This course focuses on integrating state-of-the-art information technologies, particularly those related to the digitization chain, institutional repositories, and long-term preservation, into the daily operations of archives, records centers, museums, special collections libraries, visual resource collections, and historical societies. Issues, topics, and technologies covered will include the promise & challenge of long-term digital preservation and curation; creating durable digital objects, approaches to preservation; development of institutional repositories; image processing; selecting materials for digitization and managing digitization projects; resource allocation and costing, risk management, digitization and metadata; rights management and other legal and ethical issues; digital asset management; standards; file formats; quality control; funding for developing and sustaining digitization projects and programs; and trusted repositories.

Digital Preservation & Access Fall, 2008

Goals and Objectives.

By the end of the course, the student should be able to:

• Identify the key events in the history of digital preservation and access.• Be able to define “digital curation” and explain how this is different from “digital preservation.”• Understand the digital curation lifecycle from standards creation through archiving and disposition.• Understand the primary issues and challenges in digital preservation and curation and be conversant

with the terminology.• Be familiar with a variety of digital curation projects worldwide.• Be able to discuss standards that are important to the digital curation lifecycle.• Discuss the OAIS model and how it fits into the trusted digital repository movement.• Discuss what makes a repository “trustworthy.”• Be familiar with the development of tools and standards for audit and certification of digital

repositories.• Be familiar with the development of institutional repositories.• Be able to explain different approaches to digital preservation.• Explain the digitization workflow and all the steps involved in major digitization projects.• Be familiar with best practice guidelines and organizations that are creating them for digitization and

digital preservation.Select materials for digitization projects and provide sound justifications for these selections.Select and justify standards and benchmarks for a given digitization project.Create appropriate metadata for digital objects for access, management, and preservation purposes.Determine the costs of digitization projects and plan appropriate facilities and resources.Understand how to manage a digitization project including assessing risk and establishing a quality control program.

• Write a well-argued and constructed grant proposal for a digitization, repository building, or digital preservation project.

Format.Most learning occurs when you integrate a new concept into your personal experiences, beliefs, and understandings. As such, much of the course will focus on applying readings through case studies, group projects, and class discussion. I, Carolyn, or a guest, will present material at the beginning of many classes, but lectures are generally an ineffective method of learning and these will be kept to a minimum. Note that a discussion of the topics and reading requires class participation and preparation.

Assignments & Evaluation.Due to the nature of this course, positive and active participation is required. Positive and active participation is characterized by having a clear command of the readings for the day, sharing analyses and options based on the readings, project guidelines, and case studies; allowing other students the opportunity to participate; and freely agreeing and disagreeing with others when warranted. Please note that an intellectual exchange of ideas is the cornerstone of education, but any criticism should be limited to an idea and not the person specifically.

Textbook and Readings.

There is no textbook for class, although the now out of print, Kenny, Anne R. & Oya Rieger. Moving Theory into Practice. Mountain View, CA: RLG, 2000 is on reserve in the SILS Library. There are several journal readings for the class; almost all of these materials will be available on the Web. There may also be some readings posted on the Blackboard site for class. See weekly calendar below.

Honor Code.This class strictly follows the Honor Code. Information on the Honor Code can be found at: http://honor.unc.edu/honor/code.html.

As the Semester Begins….1) If you are not familiar with Photoshop, go to the UNC-CH website: http://help.unc.edu. Go to

software and then Photoshop and version 7.0 documents for “image ready,” “selection techniques,” and “web graphics.” Photoshop is a useful program with which to be familiar if you are digitizing materials and mounting on the Web. We will not, however, cover how to use it in this class.

2) Go to Cornell University Library’s Preservation Department’s website and run through the Moving Theory into Practice Online Tutorial. http://www.library.cornell.edu/preservation/tutorial/contents.html. Most of this is assigned throughout the semester, but it will give you a bit of an overview introduction if you do it up front before the heavy work of the semester starts. You will also be using the Cornell tutorial on Digital Preservation Management. http://www.library.cornell.edu/iris/tutorial/dpm/index.html.

3) Pick out what you want to do for your paper (no more than 15 double-spaced pages each). This paper is to be a literature review and a way for you to focus a bit more on one topic and the associated issues of your choice. You can select anything related to institutional repository development, digitization

Digital Preservation & Access Fall, 2008

projects or, more broadly, digital preservation and access. Some of these topics could easily be developed into master’s papers. Here are some topics to get you started thinking:

a. State of the art of institutional repositories in the US.b. State of the art of institutional repositories in the UK (or elsewhere).c. Why are universities building institutional repositories?d. OAIS. Is this the universal repository model?e. How are institutions using Fedora?f. How are institutions using DSpace?g. What materials are going into institutional repositories?h. How are university archives involved with institutional repositories?i. Will institutional repositories replace journal publishers?j. Saving the bits: the range of technical options.k. Saving the bits: emulation vs. migration.l. Preservation aspects of early digitization projects? Was preservation considered?m. Preservation vs. access. Are these two still in opposition?n. Funding futures for digitization projects.o. The metadata maze: How much do we really need?p. The metadata maze: What are repositories really doing?q. EAD. Is it the universal encoding answer?r. How can little repositories play in the digital arena?s. XML. Is it the preservation and access answer?t. How do you best select equipment?u. How are digital archives different from digital libraries?v. What is the purpose of digitization?w. What is the state of the art of DAMS?x. Is there a role for selection in the days of inexpensive mass storage?y. Which costs more to maintain: Digital or paper publications?z. File formats and a file format registry.

aa. Institutional repositories – vision, roles, realities.bb. Digital capture: key elements of hardware and software.cc. Searching for and retrieving digital content on the web.dd. Image consortia: how are these organizations working?ee. Methods for user assessment of digital cultural heritage assets.ff. Discuss what makes a repository trustworthy.gg. How does iRODS fit into the digital preservation landscape?
