ICPSR: Digital Preservation

Including Community Standards and Practice, and ICPSR's Approach to Digital Preservation

ICPSR: Digital Preservation Glossary

ICPSR has identified a set of terms that are used in discussing and documenting our digital preservation program. We have developed definitions for these terms that often reflect both the general use of the term and the use of the term within the context of ICPSR. Terms within online versions of ICPSR digital preservation documents are linked to definitions within the Glossary.
