Domain-based Print Archiving
1. Cooperative Print Archiving by Discipline
Project Goals
• Consensus-based cooperative archiving on a national level
• Focus on legacy print collections in the fields of Agriculture and Law
• Replicable models and a sustainable framework for archiving in other domains
Tangible Outcomes
• Web accessible information base providing data on
title holdings, conditions, services
• Formal service agreements for archiving
commitments
• Adaptable templates for service agreements and
specifications for archiving provisions and levels of
service
Project Scope
• Agriculture
– Serials and government publications on agriculture, rural
life and home economics published between 1820 and
1975 identified and digitized by USAIN program
• Law
– Rich collection of legal serials microfilmed and digitized
under the LLMC program
ImplementationPhases
1. Assemble supporting information base
2. Document baseline archiving conditions and services
3. Create consensus on expanding archives and services
4. Develop and implement expanded archiving
agreements
Phase 1: Assemble the Supporting Information Base
• Obtain existing metadata describing holdings of printed source materials and corresponding digital surrogates from project partners
• Enter data in web accessible central database
Phase 2: Document Baseline Archiving Conditions and Services
• Compile detailed information on integrity of print (source) materials for USAIN and LLMC digital collections
• Determine or verify existing storage conditions
• Inventory existing services provided by holding
institutions• Link or add preservation information to bib and
holdings information base
• Develop options for improving preservation conditions, expanding services, increasing holdings of USAIN and LLMC archives
• Determine costs and implementation timetable for improvements
• Assess interest and obtain input from other interested libraries
Phase 3: Create Consensus on Expanding the Archives and Services
• Develop formal agreements specifying long-term archiving commitments of participants and compensation
• Convene relevant U.S. and foreign consortia and library organizations to broaden participation
• Implement and maintain necessary data, administrative services, communications platforms to support ongoing archiving.
Phase 4: Develop and Implement Expanded Archiving Agreements
Success =
• Agreement on optimum terms and conditions for
archiving of legal and agricultural print materials
• Significant increase in the number of legal and
agricultural print materials archived
• Expansion of the number of libraries supporting the
archiving of legal and agricultural print materials
Domain-based Print Archiving
