Project aim
3
“…to investigate Archivematica and explore how it might be used to provide digital preservation functionality within a wider infrastructure for Research Data Management.”
![Page 4: Research data spring: filling in the digital preservation gap](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062821/588858321a28ab951c8b7059/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Why?
4
....because we believe that digital preservation should be a key element of the infrastructure for managing research data for the long term
(From RDMSS PQQ)“...preservation actions should ensure that data remains authentic, reliable, and usable while maintaining integrity.”

Why Archivematica?
5
....because it is open source, standards compliant, flexible and customisable and packages a range of preservation tools together
...if you want to know more you can read our phase 1 report

Impact and demand
14
Yes….sounds like a pragmatic solution
Yes! Low down learning curve and Archivematica sounds just the ticket :-)
Possible but too early to say
Do you see Archivematica as a possible digital preservation solution for your institution? Why?
Yes - University Archivist is an advocate and want to link in collaboratively with the institution's RDM developments
Possibly if it can integrate with Pure...
Yes

Sustainability»All developments funded in phase 2 will be
incorporated into the main code base to be supported for the long term by Artefactual
–look out for these in version 1.6 (due Spring 2016)
»There are already plans to build on some of the work we have funded
–for example AIP re-ingest work from Zuse Institute–...and more...see phase 2 report

Next phase
»Implement our local proof of concepts at Hull and York»Outreach
» Paper at IDCC conference» Presentation at UK Archivematica group meeting» Poster at Open Repositories conference» Poster at UK Archives Discovery Forum» more blogs» end of project event to disseminate our case studies
»Phase 3 project report (with assessment of success of PoCs)

What we will spend the money on
»Managing and funding our own internal development work
»2 weeks support from Artefactual Systems»4 new research data file signatures from The National
Archives (and further engagement on generic process)»Outreach (conference fees, travel etc)»Putting on our own dissemination event

Working for other repositories
» Archivematica -> repository› Our model: Archivematica -> Fedora/Hydra› Unpack a DIP and create Fedora objects
– Similar model for EPrints/DSpace?› Could just store the DIP, but this limits access
options» Repository -> Archivematica
› Push content to Archivematica from a repository for dark archiving
› Possible via DSpace, planned for Fedora/Hydra at Hull
