Creating the Digital Preservation Network

Home / Project Briefing Pages / CNI Spring 2012 Project Briefings / Creating the Digital Preservation Network

March 30, 2012

James Hilton
Vice President and CIO
University of Virginia

The Digital Preservation Network (DPN) will address risk to the very long-term preservation of the scholarly record by creating a federated approach to preservation of academic content. The DPN ecosystem ensures reliable, long-term digital preservation through a federated network of diverse, non-overlapping preservation strategies sustained by committed institutions of higher education, which mitigates the threat of a single point of failure — organizational, technical, physical, or political — jeopardizing centuries of scholarship. This presentation will discuss progress toward the launch of DPN and opportunities to engage in the effort.
