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

4. 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

5. Project Scope Agriculture Law
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

6. Implementation Phases
Assemble supporting information base
Document baseline archiving conditions and services
Create consensus on expanding archives and services
Develop and implement expanded archiving agreements

7. 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

8. 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 8

9. Phase 3: Create Consensus on Expanding the Archives and Services
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 9

10. Phase 4: Develop and Implement Expanded Archiving Agreements
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. 10
