As the Digital Preservation Network (DPN) organization matures and greater thought is given to operationalizing the service, it has embarked on the first of what is thought will be a series of pilot projects to test the workflows and functionality of the network architecture and to engage member institutions and Nodes to discuss organizational and technical challenges and plan how to meet those challenges, individually and collectively. The inaugural DPN Pilot is limited to three teams each comprised of a DPN member institution and a First and Replicating Node:

  • Yale University Libraries (Member) and Stanford (Node)
  • Texas A&M University Libraries (Member) and Texas Preservation Network (Node)
  • Dartmouth (Member) and Chronopolis (Node)

The pilot will realize other non-technical objectives including refinement of the initial deposit process, initial drafting of legal and service level agreements, preparation of materials and application of metadata, and other work needed to ensure the long-term preservation and eventual succession of collections. This group meets bi-weekly over two months and the presenters will share outcomes from the pilot including an overview of decisions made; additional resources identified; and discussion of unexpected issues at each phase of the pilot.
