Digital archiving

2. Experience by Universities
Universities of Warsaw, Rome la Sapienza, Helsinki and Brussels
Warsaw: all the libraries use the same software dLibra made in Poland , it makes possible for libraries to check what material has already been digitised, only the National Library use other software and makes no announcement of which material has been digitised
Priorities: special collections and students leaning materials

Helsinki thesis repository about 10 years
Nowadays 80 % from PhD thesis published on the web, MA thesis under planning
Abstracts mandatory publishing on the web
Textbook articles (about 10 years)
Research data recently
National Digital Library program by the Min of Education

7. Public/ private partnerships
Google
Ghent was first a French speaking university
Profitable for the university when getting the work and technology from Google
How the preservation has arranged, can we rely on the future access

8. Service provision
Are the digitised collections by Google open or restricted in the future?
What kind of restrictions it will make for the future collaboration with third partners and research purposes?

9. OA issues
The University leadership has to support or even make OA publishing mandatory on the university level
E.g. University of Helsinki will mandate scholars to publish in the OA-journals or in the institutional repository
The process of OA publishing has to be easy and rewarding for the scholars
