Preserving Access to Digital Information (PADI)
Changes to the website
http://www.nla.gov.au/padi/
The following message is a reminder of the value of the "Preserving
Access to Digital Information" (PADI) initiative of the The National
Library of Australia, that maintains a valuable subject gateway to
digital preservation resources. Beyond the website, PADI's objectives
are:
1.to facilitate the development of strategies and guidelines for
the preservation of access to digital information;
2.to develop and maintain a web site for information and promotion purposes;
3.to actively identify and promote relevant activities; and
4.to provide a forum for cross-sectoral cooperation on activities
promoting the preservation of access to digital information.
The PADI also maintains a discussion list
<http://www.nla.gov.au/padi/forum/> for the exchange of news and
ideas about digital preservation issues.
