Overview

Building Trustworthy Digital Repositories: Theory and Implementation combines information on both theory and practice related to creating trustworthy repositories for records into one up-to-date source. This book will bring all the credible theories into one place where they will be summarized, brought up to date, and footnoted. Moreover, the book will be international in its scope, and will discuss ideas coming from such important sources as Australia, Canada, and Western Europe. Until about five years ago, there were very few implementation projects in this area. This book brings together information on implementation projects that answer these questions: ·What is a trustworthy repository for digital records? ·Who is building these repositories, and what have been the results? ·How are institutions building or creating these repositories? ·How are institutions addressing the essential requirement related to the ingest or capture of records? ·How are institutions automatically and manually capturing essential metadata and audit trails? ·How are institutions implementing retention and disposal decisions within these systems? ·How are institutions implementing preservation strategies to ensure that digital objects are accessible over long periods of time? ·What is the current status of trustworthy repositories, and what will these systems look like in the future?

Reviews

For many years, archivists and others have struggled with the challenges of managing our digital heritage, writing thousands of words on the conceptual challenges but often lacking practical solutions and methods. Bantin's recent compilation gives us both theoretical musings along with numerous case studies from state government, universities, corporations, and other venues from the United States, Australia, Europe, and Canada. All aspects of building and using trustworthy digital repositories, from audits and policies to management and standards, are treated. This is an essential volume for archivists, librarians, records managers, and other information professionals working with digital sources. -- Richard J. Cox, Chair and Professor, Department of Information Culture and Data Stewardship Philip C. Bantin has succeeded in bringing together an impressive team of forty-three archivists, educators, and practitioners to develop this much needed, comprehensive and authoritative work. Students in archival and records management programs will benefit greatly by understanding the current state of trustworthy systems (Nancy McGovern) and looking to trustworthy systems of the future (Luciana Duranti). And seasoned professionals will benefit from the experiences of pioneering practitioners describing projects implemented in the workplace, including The Oregon Records Management Solution--ORMS (Mary Beth Herkert) and Washington State's Shared Responsibility Models (Debbie Bahn). Philip's book is a must-have resource for archival and records management students, researchers, and professionals. -- Patricia C. Franks, CA, CRM, Program Coordinator, Master's Degree in Archives and Records Management, School of Information, San Jose State University
