and Preservation Program Update
William G. LeFurgy
Digital Initiatives Program Manager
Library of Congress
The Library of Congress is leading an effort to advance preservation
of cultural heritage material in digital form. Under legislation for
the National Digital Information Infrastructure and Preservation Program
(NDIIPP), the Library is collaborating with government agencies, educational
institutions, technology companies, and other stakeholders to build
a distributed network of preservation partners. The Library is also
supporting research to develop the tools, methods, and models needed
to effectively manage digital content throughout its life cycle. This
session will provide details about NDIIPP current progress and future
plans.
