Table of content Objectives of WP 3 Partners in WP3 The overall work plan The first 6 months: Task 3.1, Task 3.2, Task 3.3 Rome, 8/10/2012 Kick-off meeting - 2

Objectives of WP 3 To identify key characteristics and requirements for a preservation Roadmap for DCH To develop a registry of services and tools To investigate how Infrastructure as Service can contribute to digital preservation services for DCH To design and validate the preservation Roadmap for DCH Rome, 8/10/2012 Kick-off meeting - 3

Objectives of WP 3 To explore the state of the art in cultural heritage and e-infrastructure, and interoperability principles for digital preservation in order to inform the two communities about their other´s practice To consider how standards and interoperability principles can be adopted by the cultural heritage and e-infrastructure communities in order to maximise their potential benefits

The first 6 months: Task 3.1 Preservation services architecture Action plan Update the DC-Net report (also using results from the Indicate project) Create a DP service architecture for a grid provider (using the gateway designed by the Indicate project) Do a gap analysis between the existing services and the would-be DP services on the GRID (needed also for Task 3.3 Registry of tools) Produce deliverable D3.1 Study on a Roadmap for preservation

Task 3.2 – Standards and interoperability Lead Partner – Collections Trust Length – Months 1 – 9 Objectives: To consider how standards and interoperability principles can be adopted by the cultural heritage and e-Infrastructure communities in order to maximise their potential benefits; Identify and report on the emerging and established standards with a fairly large numbers of users in the digital cultural heritage and e-Infrastructure communities.

Research area levels International or EC (e.g. ATHENA; Linked Heritage, DL.org); National (e.g. Collections Link; JISC); Regional and organisational level. It will identify useful and key: Tools; Workflows; Approaches; Solutions; Demonstrators, and applications.

Digital cultural heritage standards Technical – for content on image, text, audio, video and 3D types; Metadata and data interchange, and linked data – in the museum, libraries, archives, and audio-visual domains; Persistent Identifiers – for digital content, original objects, collections, organisations, persons, periods and events, and places; Intellectual Property Rights – and other associated rights.

e-Infrastructures standards User management – single sign-on, security, group management; Persistent Identifiers; User support; Virtualisation; Data analysis; High performance computing and data preservation.

Interoperability Technical – using technical standards; Semantic – using common vocabularies; Political/ Human – overcoming the barriers; Inter-community – recognising differences; Legal – following legal restraints; International – recognising barriers caused by cultural and linguistic differences.

Task 3.3 – Registry of services and tools (1) Purpose: to help CH institutions (+citizen scientists?) to find solutions and tools to address issues related to digital cultural heritage preservation to collect the state-of-the art, up-to-date knowledge in one place, and provide it to interested stakeholders Possible forms: Web portal with static and dynamic content + search facilities Static part: peer-reviewed? (WP3 participants, DCH-RP participants and associated partners) registry of services use-cases & success stories How-to’s and cook-books? Implementation: public wiki? Dynamic part: news on data preservation tools and services, related technologies etc. Announcements of meetings, conferences etc. related to tools and services for DP (workshops, hand-on’s, summer schools etc.) ‚Blog’ space? 15 15

Task 3.3 – Registry of services and tools (2) Open issues: T3.3 (M1-12) -> D3.3 „Registry of services” (M12) PSNC is coordinating Task 3.3: Contribution from other partners needed! Estimated indicative PMs devoted to deliverable: 10 PMs; PSNC PMs: 2PMs Contribution/collaboration from/with other partners Registry should be as complete as possible Task 3.3 depends on T3.2 and T3.1: T3.1.: Preservation services architecture, (M1-6), led by: RA (RIKSARKIVET) T3.2.: Standards and interoperability, (M1-9), lead by: CT (Collections Trust) 16 16
