We also had a presentation from Ben Welsh, who is a database producer at the Los Angeles Times and the creator of PastPages, an archive dedicated to the preservation of online news. Ben attended the RJI event and presented about StoryTracker, and will reprise his presentation for our meeting. StoryTracker is a new set of open source tools aimed at analyzing the stories that appear on news homepages. In this brief talk, Ben will show its key features and demonstrate how it could be useful in other efforts to save and scrutinize the Web.

==Current Activities==

===Industry Outreach:===
Archives and Libraries act in conjunction with geospatial users in government to meet with ESRI and discuss need for published or open formats.

===Appraisal:===
Continuing to explore the appraisal issues around geospatial data for long-term preservation.

Have completed the reworking the "Appraisal and Selection of Geospatial Data" white paper prepared by Steve Morris for the Library of Congress in February 2011. The paper has been reviewed for comment by the full NDSA Content WG and will be shared with the NDSA Coordination Group for final review in late July with a public release planned in Sept. 2013. [[NDSA:Media:AppraisalSelection_whitepaper_ndsa-draft6.doc | Latest version (version 6)]].

The group will continue to leverage work being done by the [http://www.fgdc.gov/participation/working-groups-subcommittees/hdwg/index_html FGDC Users/Historical Data Working Group]. The group is reviewing the U/HDWG paper on [[NDSA:Media:selection-appraisal-geospatial-content_v20.doc |"Guidance on the Selection and Appraisal of Geospatial Content of Enduring Value"]] which is currently under review by the FGDC Coordination Group. As a future action, the group may adapt this FGDC report and recast it as an NDSA report.

The group will continue to build on [http://www.geomapp.net/publications_categories.htm#appraise GeoMAPP appraisal efforts].

===Collection Development Policies/Records Acquisition Policies/Records Retention Policies:===
Members will share their policy documents with the group for comparison purposes. One possible outcome could be an NDSA "standard" collection policy document template and an NDSA "standard" records acquistion template (if different?).

===Spatial Data Infrastructure:===
Leverage SDI activities happening at all levels of government to benefit the long-term preservation of geospatial information of value to the nation. From the [http://www.fgdc.gov/nsdi/nsdi.html FGDC web site]:

"Consistent means to share geographic data among all users could produce significant savings for data collection and use and enhance decision making. [http://www.fgdc.gov/nsdi/policyandplanning/executive_order Executive Order 12906]calls for the establishment of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure defined as the technologies, policies, and people necessary to promote sharing of geospatial data throughout all levels of government, the private and non-profit sectors, and the academic community.

The goal of this Infrastructure is to reduce duplication of effort among agencies, improve quality and reduce costs related to geographic information, to make geographic data more accessible to the public, to increase the benefits of using available data, and to establish key partnerships with states, counties, cities, tribal nations, academia and the private sector to increase data availability."

===Proprietary vs. open formats:===
Discuss the challenges and opportunities with dealing with different formats. Prepare case studies on format issues or on particular formats. Address "emerging" "current" and "waning" formats. Explore format "openness" (For background information reference blog posts [http://www.structuralknowledge.com/2012/02/03/why-esri-as-is-cant-be-part-of-the-open-government-movement/ here] and the perspective of the new Esri DC Development Center [http://blog.geoiq.com/2012/08/22/esri-dc-development-center-plans/ here]).
Build on [http://www.geomapp.net/docs/GeoMAPP_Geospatial_data_file_formats_FINAL_20110701.xls GeoMAPP format work] and [http://www.digitalpreservation.gov/formats/content/gis.shtml Library of Congress Sustainability of Digital Formats work].

===Rights and Access:===
Explore copyright and other rights issues that challenge the access to and preservation of Geospatial Data: (a) copyright, licensing and legal implications of language such as indemnification/hold harmless clauses in data distribution agreements; (b) administrative metadata for dealing with access rights (c) Costs/fees for obtaining local public geospatial data and implications for archiving (i.e. continually purchase new versions based on retention schedule?)

===Technical Best Practices===
Work to Compose and Disseminate Technical Best Practices for geospatial preservation: (a)File formats, naming conventions and best practices; (b) Export feature classes out of geodatabases and archive as shapefiles?; (c) re-name files for archiving purposes, but retain link (via database?) back to original file from original data producer? (d) share organizational workflow demonstrations with the group.

Explore the possibility of a future geospatial preservation Wikipedia article. Some of the work the group did when considering the FGDC Geospatial Platform may be relevant (content, limitations, risks, etc.). See also http://blogs.loc.gov/digitalpreservation/2014/01/wikipedia-the-go-to-source-for-information-about-digital-preservation/

===Metadata:===
Document ISO standards, preservation standards, preservation-based metadata formats as they relate to long-term stewardship. Actively participate in standardization activities through OGC, ISO, FGDC and organizations such as ASPRS etc.

===State GIS Clearinghouse Issues:===
Continue to explore the role of state GIS Clearinghouses and their relationship with local data providers and the details regarding the data transfer between the two: (a) acquisition of data (by the clearinghouse) on specific schedules; (b) data sharing agreements between the two entities; (c) definition of framework layers and those preserved vs. not preserved (appraisal process) in an eventual archive; (d) metadata and minimum documentation required by both clearinghouse and archive

===At-Risk Data Issues:===
Explore challenges related to [http://www.ala.org/advocacy/copyright/orphan Orphan works] and leverage existing efforts such as the [http://wiki.ieee-earth.org/Best_Practices/GEOSS_Transverse_Areas/Data_and_Architecture/Data_Archiving/Purge_Alerts IEEE Group on Earth Observations Purge Alerts] and the [http://www.ibiblio.org/data-at-risk/ ICSU/CODATA Data at Risk Inventory] to identify stewards for at-risk and endangered data.
**Coordination Challenges
**Capacity Challenges
**Organizational/Resource Challenges: use as structure for case studies
***Records Retention Approach
***Collections Development Approach
**Orphaned Works Challenges

**Organizational/Resource Challenges: use as structure for case studies
***Records Retention Approach (NARA, North Carolina, Kentucky)
***Collections Development Approach (Montana, Wisconsin, university libraries)

Goal is to use the descriptions of how these organizational approaches work to show their pluses and minuses in terms of identifying geospatial data and bringing that data into the repository for long-term preservation and access. This approach will enable other organizations to recognize the approach that they use and see their own strengths and weaknesses.

Appears that we have an A1 and A2 approach to the scheduling method as Kentucky's approach is not the same as NARA nor North Carolina.

FGDC may have a CAP Grant for Geo-archiving Business plan development which could be used to accomplish this goal.

==Draft Definition of At-Risk Geospatial Content==

The geospatial content group has defined at-risk data as that which they take in, collect and/or maintain based on an established collecting policy, schedule, or agreed upon appraisal decisions, recognizing overlap between federal, state and local government

We define "data at risk" in this context as scientific data which are not in a format that permits full electronic access to the information which they contain. Such data may be inherently non-digital (e.g. handwritten or photographic), on near-obsolete digital media (such as magnetic tapes) or insufficiently described (lacking meta-data). Some born-digital data can also be considered "at risk" if they cannot be ingested into managed databases because they lack adequate formatting or metadata. Data which are regarded as unuseable tend to be regarded as useless, and then risk being destroyed. Most of the non-electronic data in question pre-date the digital era, and where they complement more modern ones by offering a much longer time-base they are essential, sometimes vital, for studies of long-term trends

====[[NDSA:Content Registry Action Team]]====
Visit the [[NDSA:Content Registry Action Team]] (Group A) page for information. Work on the registry is now on hold, although some related work is being done on the [[NDSA:Levels of preservation]] with other working groups.

====[[NDSA:Clearinghouse Action Team]]====
Visit the [[NDSA:Clearinghouse Action Team]] (Group B) page for information. The thinking behind the clearinghouse let us to break up into the Content Teams; work continues there related to the identification of at-risk content and pairing with institutions who might preserve.

==== Appraisal of Local Government Information Action Team ====

An outcome of the CWG workshop, a need was determined for guidance on appraisal for local government information. This group has since been absorbed into the [[NDSA:Government Content Team]].

====[[NDSA:Blog Preservation|Blog Preservation Action Team]]====

An outcome of the CWG workshop, an action team was formed to explore the idea of a blog preservation plugin. Visit the [[NDSA:Blog Preservation]] page for more information. This project is currently on hold while we explore options other than working directly with Wordpress (that didn't pan out). One option we're investigating is a funded project via IIPC (netpreserve.org).

====2011 [[NDSA:Web Archiving Survey]]====
A survey of Web Archiving organizations in the U.S. was conduced in October 2011 and results were compiled and published in July 2012. [[NDSA:Web Archiving Survey]] links to the report and an addendum with further information for NDSA members.

===2014 National Agenda for Digital Stewardship===

The final report and more information is available here: http://www.digitalpreservation.gov/ndsa/nationalagenda/
Content Working Group members contributed to the report. See a the initial [[NDSA:CWG Brainstorm]] page.

NDSA:Content Working Group

2014-09-02T15:55:19Z

Abgr: /* 2013 Web Archiving Survey */

== Statement of Purpose ==

The Content [[NDSA:Terms#Working_Group|Working Group]] will focus on identifying content already preserved, investigating guidelines for the selection of significant content, discovery of at-risk digital content or collections, and matching orphan content with NDSA partners who will acquire the content, preserve it, and provide access to it.

== Members ==
To see a list of current members, please send a "REVIEW NDSA-CONTENT" command LISTSERV@LISTSERV.LOC.GOV . This returns the e-mail address and name of all the subscribers to our list (aka members). Contact Abbie if you have questions about this.

== How to Get Involved ==
Contact [[NDSA:Terms#Working_Group_Co-Chairs|co-chairs]] Christie Moffatt (moffattc@mail.nlm.nih.gov) and Abbie Grotke (abgr@loc.gov) to join the working group or to learn more about how to get involved.

'''A few ways to learn more and get involved:'''

*Read this wiki - review the scope of work and information about the Content Teams, to get started
*Check out our public page: http://www.digitalpreservation.gov/ndsa/working_groups/content.html
*Join our meetings (details below)
*Sign up to do one of our [[NDSA:Member Presentations]]
*Offer to help take meeting minutes (truly appreciated!)
*Join one of our [[NDSA:content teams]]
*Help with small or large tasks to accomplish Content Team goals
*Chat with your fellow members via the listserv - ask questions, tell us about your projects, introduce yourself!
*Have an idea for a project or activity? Action teams may also be formed outside of (or within) the Content Teams, to perform specific tasks or accomplish goals. Start one up!
*Get your co-workers involved - if there are others in your organization that you'd like to get more involved, contact Abbie to get them signed up.

And finally,
*Don't be afraid to change Working Groups. If Content isn't a good fit, and you're more interested in [[NDSA:Infrastructure Working Group|Infrastructure]], [[NDSA:Innovation Working Group|Innovation]], [[NDSA:Outreach Working Group|Outreach]], or [[NDSA:Standards and Best Practices Working Group|Standards]] after all, our feelings won't be hurt. We realize that as the work evolves, new members may find themselves in the "wrong" group. Contact your co-chairs if you have questions about switching working groups.

== Scope of Work ==

The Content Working Group is developing case studies and models to share compelling stories that demonstrate the value of digital preservation in our communities. The case studies will be shared with all stakeholders, from content producers to cultural heritage organizations, with goals of:

*engaging all members of the community in the preservation of content,

*encouraging the cultivation of relationships that could enable preservation, and,

*in conjunction with other working groups in the NDSA, identifying actionable next steps to ensure important content is preserved.

An earlier version of our [[NDSA:scope of work]] is available here.

===Current Activities and Initiatives===
==== Content Teams ====

Content Working Group [[NDSA:content teams]] have been formed around various content areas to better organize our large working group. By motivating smaller teams to work together on projects of interest to them, we hope to accomplish more and raise awareness about the risk and value of digital content. Ideally everyone in the content WG will sign up for at least one that fits their organizations content area of interest. Read more [[NDSA:About the Content Teams]] here.

NOTE: The content teams have their own meeting schedules; please contact the facilitators for each group to learn more about meeting times.

*[[NDSA:Big Picture Group]]
*[[NDSA:Government Content Team]]
*[[NDSA:Geospatial]]
*[[NDSA:News, Media, and Journalism]]
*[[NDSA:Science, Mathematics, Technology and Medicine]]
*[[NDSA:Social Sciences]]
*[[NDSA:Cultural Heritage]] -- as of June 2013, merged [[NDSA:Arts & Humanities]] with this group.

====[[NDSA:Content Case Studies]]====

The Content Teams of the Content Working Group will develop case studies around a variety of types of content to share compelling stories that demonstrate the value of digital preservation in our communities.

NDSA:Content Working Group

2014-09-02T15:42:34Z

Abgr: /* National Agenda for Digital Stewardship */

== Statement of Purpose ==

The Content [[NDSA:Terms#Working_Group|Working Group]] will focus on identifying content already preserved, investigating guidelines for the selection of significant content, discovery of at-risk digital content or collections, and matching orphan content with NDSA partners who will acquire the content, preserve it, and provide access to it.

== Members ==
To see a list of current members, please send a "REVIEW NDSA-CONTENT" command LISTSERV@LISTSERV.LOC.GOV . This returns the e-mail address and name of all the subscribers to our list (aka members). Contact Abbie if you have questions about this.

== How to Get Involved ==
Contact [[NDSA:Terms#Working_Group_Co-Chairs|co-chairs]] Christie Moffatt (moffattc@mail.nlm.nih.gov) and Abbie Grotke (abgr@loc.gov) to join the working group or to learn more about how to get involved.

'''A few ways to learn more and get involved:'''

*Read this wiki - review the scope of work and information about the Content Teams, to get started
*Check out our public page: http://www.digitalpreservation.gov/ndsa/working_groups/content.html
*Join our meetings (details below)
*Sign up to do one of our [[NDSA:Member Presentations]]
*Offer to help take meeting minutes (truly appreciated!)
*Join one of our [[NDSA:content teams]]
*Help with small or large tasks to accomplish Content Team goals
*Chat with your fellow members via the listserv - ask questions, tell us about your projects, introduce yourself!
*Have an idea for a project or activity? Action teams may also be formed outside of (or within) the Content Teams, to perform specific tasks or accomplish goals. Start one up!
*Get your co-workers involved - if there are others in your organization that you'd like to get more involved, contact Abbie to get them signed up.

And finally,
*Don't be afraid to change Working Groups. If Content isn't a good fit, and you're more interested in [[NDSA:Infrastructure Working Group|Infrastructure]], [[NDSA:Innovation Working Group|Innovation]], [[NDSA:Outreach Working Group|Outreach]], or [[NDSA:Standards and Best Practices Working Group|Standards]] after all, our feelings won't be hurt. We realize that as the work evolves, new members may find themselves in the "wrong" group. Contact your co-chairs if you have questions about switching working groups.

== Scope of Work ==

The Content Working Group is developing case studies and models to share compelling stories that demonstrate the value of digital preservation in our communities. The case studies will be shared with all stakeholders, from content producers to cultural heritage organizations, with goals of:

*engaging all members of the community in the preservation of content,

*encouraging the cultivation of relationships that could enable preservation, and,

*in conjunction with other working groups in the NDSA, identifying actionable next steps to ensure important content is preserved.

An earlier version of our [[NDSA:scope of work]] is available here.

===Current Activities and Initiatives===
==== Content Teams ====

Content Working Group [[NDSA:content teams]] have been formed around various content areas to better organize our large working group. By motivating smaller teams to work together on projects of interest to them, we hope to accomplish more and raise awareness about the risk and value of digital content. Ideally everyone in the content WG will sign up for at least one that fits their organizations content area of interest. Read more [[NDSA:About the Content Teams]] here.

NOTE: The content teams have their own meeting schedules; please contact the facilitators for each group to learn more about meeting times.

*[[NDSA:Big Picture Group]]
*[[NDSA:Government Content Team]]
*[[NDSA:Geospatial]]
*[[NDSA:News, Media, and Journalism]]
*[[NDSA:Science, Mathematics, Technology and Medicine]]
*[[NDSA:Social Sciences]]
*[[NDSA:Cultural Heritage]] -- as of June 2013, merged [[NDSA:Arts & Humanities]] with this group.

====[[NDSA:Content Case Studies]]====

The Content Teams of the Content Working Group will develop case studies around a variety of types of content to share compelling stories that demonstrate the value of digital preservation in our communities.

NDSA CWG brainstorming

*Christie Moffatt
*Abbie Grotke
*Glen McAninch
*Joshua Greenberg
*Libby Smigel

Abbie gave a brief runthrough of how we approach agendas for past meetings - last year we focused on National Agenda content areas and member presentations, which were very well attended and appreciated by attendees. (But we did that all year). Is there other work we could be accomplishing during meetings, areas we could be discussing as a group? Ideas for Content Matters posts?

We then started brainstorming ideas for topics/work to focus on together, as outcome/follow on to DP14 discussion. Talked about exploring relationship/interactions between content creators and preservation specialists - depending on content that relationship may change. Journalistic/media/news content - news creators not thinking about preservation issues, would benefit from hearing from NDSA community.

Libby discussed dance companies and folk traditions - primary reason for them to exist, create new things and put on stage. Oral transmission for both forms. These are usually underfunded, statements about archivist-artist matrix, partnership. Could be common to journalist issue. There may be takeaways from SAA preservation/records manager, archivist connection. Records management pushes organizations have other missions in their mission to get more organized. Maybe there’s a parallel, work across disciplines. Strategies for living archives.

NDSA guidance for content creators… whatever we do has to be easy. Helping them articulate the benefit of preservation. Economic benefit, cultural benefit. How that will help them sustain their mission. Get the management people to buy in.

For upcoming meeting - we could have discussions around this topic, what guidance have people been providing to content creators, if anything, what would be helpful as guidance.

The case studies we've already created could be a good foundation for setting up something more in depth, next steps.

Libby suggested we tap into Theater library association (not currently members) - trust issues around this. Need to be sensitive about this. Libby could reach out to them. Share their stories.

TRUST - could explode another area ripe for discussion, would take some focus (indigenous communities, etc.)

For further discussion on this topic, we talked about getting a list of top 5-10 problematic or difficult content creator/ archivist relationships, such as:

*Performing arts,
*journalism
*indigenous/ native communities
*university faculty

Where really important content but not focused energy on how to preserve that content. See where there are patterns.

Underlying theme:
Better thought going into thought going in to day to day content creation and management of files, etc. More responsibility on the part of content creators. If we can help hash out issues of trust, file management, would be valuable.

Funders like finding solutions that help out more than one field.

What are the 5 things we want to know? Talked about creating a checklist of areas that we want covered with whoever we talk to.

What are our commonalities/difficulties? Get a framework for what we expect when we reach out to these creators.

Glen - we have some patterns, established by law relationship, which is different from cultural heritage but has some commonalities. Portal emphasizes the model - designated communities. Both creators and users. Has to take in both approaches.

We could spend a few months of our CWG meetings getting examples, hearing what’s worked and not worked.

This is not necessarily technological - there are tricky social, cultural, political actors that enter the equation.
No one in NDSA is looking at these sorts of relationships. Maybe that is the CWG role. We can address areas not being addressed by other working groups. Spend some time going thru models where relationships might be useful to broader community. How do we communicate format standards to content creators? Karen Cariani says they get all sorts of formats. they have to sort thru and normalize. if they had talked to them first, would it be different? How can we meet in the middle? meeting needs of creators and archivists.

Other meeting topic ideas:

Glen suggested hearing from the new Council of State Archivists PERTTS portal (Program For Electronic Records Training, Tools, and Standards; http://rc.statearchivists.org/PERTTS/Default.aspx ) if the creators of the portal are amenable to giving a web presentation in the next couple of months. This is a portal for state archivists, establishes framework for putting resources in, model of preservation that it holistic. A presentation that deals with an holistic approach, model would be useful. Metrics oriented.

Abbie floated an idea about having a few of our monthly meetings “hosted” meetings by our various Content teams… but more open ended discussion may not be as useful - if there was a practical thing to solve or do during the meeting this could be useful. Could throw it out to team leads to see if they want to use the hour.

Regarding the Cultural heritage DP14 session, are there projects that came out of it, or things that could be considered? Too early to say, Josh says.

Libby mentioned that every 10 years, the dance heritage leadership forum brings together archivists, artists, gives us the 10 yr strategic plan. Results in 2010, field felt most important things were access to information and technologies that can access. Worries about technology, copyrights. Potential speakers may be drawn from that… for future CWG meetings.

Also discussed a session on how you set standards for formats / file creation. Hear from members on how they've done this, how successful it's been. Glen talked about "good, better and best formats." Getting it out there, and make content creators more aware. Library of Congress has released preferred format standards. Abbie could get a speaker to talk about how it's going. - get various examples of recommended formats or on format registries and how they are trying to recognize different formats, get transition tools.

For upcoming meeting:

For next meeting, to spark ideas will discuss with members the idea of getting a list of top 5-10 problematic or difficult content creator/ archivist relationships: Performing arts, state archives, news content, indigenous native communities, university faculty, filmmakers (particularly independent. Come with other stories, ideas.

Abgr: /* Content Working Group: Future Work/Meetings */

NDSA CWG Meeting July 21, 2014 at Library of Congress

==Attendees (10)==
*Abbie Grotke
*Christie Moffatt
*Cathy Hartman
*Joshua Sternfeld
*Gail Truman
*Bradley Daigle
*Kat Bell
*Stacey Erdman
*Edward McCain
*Chad Garrett

==NDSA Web Archiving Survey==
Christie and Abbie shared progress/highlights of the Web Archiving Survey. Draft will be distributed to CWG soon.
Gail Truman suggested we ask in a future survey how many organizations are using Duracloud.

==Research and Development for Digital Cultural Heritage==
Gail Truman and Josh Sternfeld noted the challenge of the case study format for the broad range of subjects covered by the Cultural Heritage team, and shared their new approach around research and development. They gave a preview of their Digital Preservation 2014 session “Research and Development for Digital Cultural Heritage: An Open Forum.” For more and to continue the dialog, see this blog post: http://blogs.loc.gov/digitalpreservation/2014/07/research-and-development-for-digital-cultural-heritage-preservation-a-virtual-and-in-person-open-forum/

==Content Working Group: Future Work/Meetings==
Next steps for case studies

*Case studies have been developed by a few of the content teams, but we need to figure out where to take them next. The CWG can be the glue between case studies and technical implementation.
Building Relationships
*Discussed possible role of CWG in bringing together and facilitating communication between content creators and repositories. CWG could serve as a first line of contact, requiring good social skills and understanding to mediate successfully.
*More content summits like Science and Risk and Preservation.exe and news! Those were NDIIPP meetings, but CWG could think about hosting similar "mini" meetings with content creators, researchers, archivists at NDSA regional meetings, or tied into other conferences.
*Consider development of a Collective Impact strategy.
*"we have a crisis" but we can't handhold all content creators. How do we negotiate relationships? One idea was to work more closely with Standards WG to lower the bar for content creators.
*There are many questions among a lot of stakeholders, and the Content Working Group might have a role in nurturing conversations around these questions.
*Need to articulate benchmarks and forge relationships with stakeholders, build trust. "If you give me your stuff to preserve, I'll do xyz for you." Case studies are a good foundation but we need to do more.
Packaging/sharing information for curators and content creators:
*Kat Bell spoke about her use of tool kits for the dance heritage community (see http://www.danceheritage.org/artisttoolkit.html), and the challenges of talking to content creators about preservation of their born-digital content when there is not a cohesive decision about standards and best practices. She raised the question about whether tools provided to specific communities to help them preserve their own content could be applied more broadly.
*CWG might help pull resources together to support preservation for people/donors who don’t know where to start. Put together packaged guidance that can be modified as needed. These could be around standards/policies, copyright, donor relations, curation tools, cost projections. (Like Personal Digital Archiving but more, and targeted by content type). It was noted that we are often preserving things that haven't been donated, so this will only serve certain needs/audiences.
*Help smaller organizations make things happen (though Digital Preservation Q&A http://qanda.digipres.org/ may serve this purpose to an extent)
Organization/future meetings:
*Make use of Dotmocracy tool http://dotmocracy.org/what_is to identify the most pressing needs of group members?
*Member presentations are great, but time should be devoted to questions that tie back to priorities of the CWG.
*Create a small planning group to identify discussion points for CWG meetings? What topics/themes/issues should we be discussing as a group?

==Next Meeting==
Due to vacations and since we just met, we'll cancel August meeting and gather again September 3, 2014 at 11am ET.

==NDSA Web Archiving Survey==
Christie and Abbie shared progress/highlights of the Web Archiving Survey. Draft will be distributed to CWG soon.
Gail Truman suggested we ask in a future survey how many organizations are using Duracloud.

==Research and Development for Digital Cultural Heritage==
Gail Truman and Josh Sternfeld noted the challenge of the case study format for the broad range of subjects covered by the Cultural Heritage team, and shared their new approach around research and development. They gave a preview of their Digital Preservation 2014 session “Research and Development for Digital Cultural Heritage: An Open Forum.” For more and to continue the dialog, see this blog post: http://blogs.loc.gov/digitalpreservation/2014/07/research-and-development-for-digital-cultural-heritage-preservation-a-virtual-and-in-person-open-forum/

==Content Working Group: Future Work/Meetings==
Next steps for case studies

*Case studies have been developed by a few of the content teams, but we need to figure out where to take them next. The CWG can be the glue between case studies and technical implementation.
Building Relationships
*Discussed possible role of CWG in bringing together and facilitating communication between content creators and repositories. CWG could serve as a first line of contact, requiring good social skills and understanding to mediate successfully.
*More content summits like Science and Risk and Preservation.exe! Those were NDIIPP meetings, but CWG could think about hosting similar meetings with content creators, researchers, archivists at NDSA regional meetings, or tied into other conferences.
*Consider development of a Collective Impact strategy.
*There are many questions among a lot of stakeholders, and the Content Working Group might have a role in nurturing conversations around these questions.
Packaging/sharing information for curators and content creators:
*Kat Bell spoke about her use of tool kits for the dance heritage community (see http://www.danceheritage.org/artisttoolkit.html), and the challenges of talking to content creators about preservation of their born-digital content when there is not a cohesive decision about standards and best practices. She raised the question about whether tools provided to specific communities to help them preserve their own content could be applied more broadly.
*CWG might help pull resources together to support preservation for people who don’t know where to start. Put together packaged guidance that can be modified as needed. These could be around standards/policies, copyright, donor relations, curation tools, cost projections
*Help smaller organizations make things happen (though Digital Preservation Q&A http://qanda.digipres.org/ may serve this purpose to an extent)
Organization/future meetings:
*Make use of Dotmocracy tool http://dotmocracy.org/what_is to identify the most pressing needs of group members?
*Member presentations are great, but time should be devoted to questions that tie back to priorities of the CWG.
*Create a small planning group to identify discussion points for CWG meetings?

NDSA:Content Working Group

2014-07-29T13:10:14Z

Abgr: /* How to Get Involved */

== Statement of Purpose ==

The Content [[NDSA:Terms#Working_Group|Working Group]] will focus on identifying content already preserved, investigating guidelines for the selection of significant content, discovery of at-risk digital content or collections, and matching orphan content with NDSA partners who will acquire the content, preserve it, and provide access to it.

== Members ==
A list of current participants is posted here: [[NDSA:Content Working Group Members]].

== How to Get Involved ==
Contact [[NDSA:Terms#Working_Group_Co-Chairs|co-chairs]] Christie Moffatt (moffattc@mail.nlm.nih.gov) and Abbie Grotke (abgr@loc.gov) to join the working group or to learn more about how to get involved.

'''A few ways to learn more and get involved:'''

*Read this wiki - review the scope of work and information about the Content Teams, to get started
*Check out our public page: http://www.digitalpreservation.gov/ndsa/working_groups/content.html
*Join our meetings (details below)
*Sign up to do one of our [[NDSA:Member Presentations]]
*Offer to help take meeting minutes (truly appreciated!)
*Join one of our [[NDSA:content teams]]
*Help with small or large tasks to accomplish Content Team goals
*Chat with your fellow members via the listserv - ask questions, tell us about your projects, introduce yourself!
*Have an idea for a project or activity? Action teams may also be formed outside of (or within) the Content Teams, to perform specific tasks or accomplish goals. Start one up!
*Get your co-workers involved - if there are others in your organization that you'd like to get more involved, contact Abbie to get them signed up.

And finally,
*Don't be afraid to change Working Groups. If Content isn't a good fit, and you're more interested in [[NDSA:Infrastructure Working Group|Infrastructure]], [[NDSA:Innovation Working Group|Innovation]], [[NDSA:Outreach Working Group|Outreach]], or [[NDSA:Standards and Best Practices Working Group|Standards]] after all, our feelings won't be hurt. We realize that as the work evolves, new members may find themselves in the "wrong" group. Contact your co-chairs if you have questions about switching working groups.

== Scope of Work ==

The Content Working Group is developing case studies and models to share compelling stories that demonstrate the value of digital preservation in our communities. The case studies will be shared with all stakeholders, from content producers to cultural heritage organizations, with goals of:

*engaging all members of the community in the preservation of content,

*encouraging the cultivation of relationships that could enable preservation, and,

*in conjunction with other working groups in the NDSA, identifying actionable next steps to ensure important content is preserved.

An earlier version of our [[NDSA:scope of work]] is available here.

===Current Activities and Initiatives===
==== Content Teams ====

Content Working Group [[NDSA:content teams]] have been formed around various content areas to better organize our large working group. By motivating smaller teams to work together on projects of interest to them, we hope to accomplish more and raise awareness about the risk and value of digital content. Ideally everyone in the content WG will sign up for at least one that fits their organizations content area of interest. Read more [[NDSA:About the Content Teams]] here.

NOTE: The content teams have their own meeting schedules; please contact the facilitators for each group to learn more about meeting times.

*[[NDSA:Big Picture Group]]
*[[NDSA:Government Content Team]]
*[[NDSA:Geospatial]]
*[[NDSA:News, Media, and Journalism]]
*[[NDSA:Science, Mathematics, Technology and Medicine]]
*[[NDSA:Social Sciences]]
*[[NDSA:Cultural Heritage]] -- as of June 2013, merged [[NDSA:Arts & Humanities]] with this group.

====[[NDSA:Content Case Studies]]====

The Content Teams of the Content Working Group will develop case studies around a variety of types of content to share compelling stories that demonstrate the value of digital preservation in our communities.

Others in progress: The Government team is working on a case study on land records, including Maryland land records and geospacial records, with a focus on issues of cooperation between local and state people and groups. Anne Harrison from FEDLINK is also working on a case study on trying to preserve history of legislation: hearings, publications, etc. A description of this content and needs will be drafted in case study format.

====Content Interview Series====
Working Groups members are interviewing and being interviewed for the Signal Blog [[NDSA:Content Interview Series]]. If you are interested in participating, contact Abbie abgr@loc.gov.

====Member Presentations====
We want to learn more about you! Sign up on our [[NDSA:Member Presentations]] page to present about your organization, what content you are preserving, and your challenges and success stories.

====2013 [[NDSA:Web Archiving Survey]]====
A survey of Web Archiving organizations in the U.S. was conduced in October 2011 and results were compiled and published in July 2012. [[NDSA:Web Archiving Survey]] links to the report and an addendum with further information for NDSA members.

The 2013 survey was open through November 30, 2013 and analysis is now under way. More information is at [[NDSA:Web Archiving Survey]].

===National Agenda for Digital Stewardship===

The final report and more information is available here: http://www.digitalpreservation.gov/ndsa/nationalagenda/
Content Working Group members contributed to the report. See a the initial [[NDSA:CWG Brainstorm]] page.

===Prior Activities===
For more information about prior activities undertaken by the CWG, visit our [[NDSA:Prior Activities]] page.

==AGENDA and MINUTES==

This is the fourth and last in our series of talks about the Content Areas outlined in the 2014 National Agenda. This month we focused on Research Data. We had two presentations:

1. Paul Soderdahl (along with his colleauges Sara Scheib and Xiaomei Gu) was up first, discussing Data Management at the University of Iowa and their Data Management Survey. Their slides are here: [[file:NDSA_Content_WG_presentation_on_Data_Management_at_UI.pdf‎]]

Questions that followed included:

Gail McMillan: Could you say a little more about publishing vs. other dissemination?

Just like with a university press or other traditional academic publisher, a significant part of the publisher’s task is to disseminate the publication as far and wide as possible, so to a large extent these two are closely related. But other dissemination can happen outside of the publisher’s control and/or beyond the lifespan of the publisher’s involvement. For instance, if a data publication is released with CC0 license, others are permitted to redistribute. Another data repository might acquire one of our publications for inclusion in their repository, meaning there are more possibilities for dissemination beyond the publisher’s own “marketing strategy.”

Glen McAninch: Which of the models works best for you or are you working on a hybrid approach

The idea behind the model is to acknowledge that we wear multiple hats with different motivations that have varying lifespans, and they all need to coexist. This model arose out of conversations where we had multiple library staff – e.g., an archivist, a preservationist, a technologist, and a publisher – gathered together and realize we were looking at the same problem through different lenses and each had different expectations about what would need to happen and where the concentration of effort was most needed.

Rebecca Johnson Melvin/U Delaware: For each of these horizons, are you suggesting all be handled throught library repository?

Yes, ideally a generalized repository could handle the same object along its path on all four horizons.

2. Then we heard from Mark Phillips from UNT. His slides are here: http://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc288009/

Questions that followed:

Chris: Ever run into a retiring professor who discovers his closet full of mainframe tapes? Mark: Not yet, but in future he expects this to be more common.

Rebecca Johnson Melvin/U Delaware: what generic metadata are you using to describe the data deposits versus the readme.txt description? Mark: Duplin core-based UNT-L. It's all documented, and a generic library view of metadata, straightforward. They have style guide for how readmes should be done.

Aaisha Haykal, CSU: sorry, if I missed this, but is this system home grown or is it open source? Mark: it is "purpose built" locally to manage collections, based on CDL's microservices. Various components should be released open source but works for their specific environment.

Rebecca Johnson Melvin/U Delaware: Do you have any evidence yet of other researchers using this collected data? Mark: Not yet - hard to show true re-use. Have some download stats but hard to interpret.

Cathy Hartman: could you talk a bit about the preservation part of the system. Mark: Preservation repository to manage bag-it bags. A large scale system, with replication of content, fixity info, verifications. Access system (Django) to dsiplay content.

Joel Wurl: Re. the issue of "uptake," are you noticing any patterns in terms of which faculty from which disciplines are most inclined to cooperate/participate? Mark: The faculty cooperating are the ones we work with already, so not much uptake. Haven't strongarmed any others really, haven't made a huge effort to push it. Waiting to see. Need to do more outreach, people don't full understand.

Rebecca Johnson Melvin/U Delaware: Are any of the data sets deposited to meet a federally funded grant requirement? Mark: Not yet, except one library-related IMLS project (written into data management plan).

Rebecca Johnson Melvin/U Delaware: Would you accept data deposits with limited access restrictions or limited size restrictions? Mark: So far we are open to the world. We can limit pretty easily to UNT community, and can provide embargo periods if need be. The system manages/handles that.

==Other announcements==

Christie Moffatt from NLM will be taking on co-chair role after the summer meeting. Welcome Christie! Many thanks to Cathy!

We're working on details for the July meeting at DC. Will make a decision about holding one early July at our normal time. Abbie is on leave then so not sure... keep an eye on the listserv for more details.

Notes from the NDSA Content Working Group Meeting
May 7, 2014

==Attendees ==
Note: List of attendees was stored in Adobe Connect, but deleted before I got to them. I think we had about 25 folks on the call.

==AGENDA and MINUTES==

Today's call was focused on a number of projects related to web archiving.

===Nicholas Taylor, Stanford===

Description of presentation: "Following the model of Stanford's web accessibility evangelist, I've been reaching out to the campus community of web builders to raise awareness about the importance of website archivability. Archivable websites facilitate our own local web preservation efforts (e.g., an institutional archives responsible for online records) as well as those of other organizations (e.g., Internet Archive's web-wide crawls). I've been making the case - to positive reception - that archivable websites benefit web builders, as well, by improving performance, usability, and the likelihood that web archives will be available as a resource for their own reference. For the NDSA conference call, I will share tips for improving website archivability, more and less persuasive arguments for making the case to web builders, and possible collaborations that have been discussed at Stanford between campus web builders and the repository."

During our call, Nicholas shared a case study of his outreach to web masters and campus content management system people at Stanford; they're not aware of what they can do upstream to improve digital preservation efforts downstream. It helps if you go upstream to effect how the templates are set up. Make the case that archiving is also about usability. Make the case that usability over time is important.

Nicholas presentation is here: http://www.slideshare.net/nullhandle/advocating-for-web-archivability

===Maureen Harlow, NLM’s NDSR resident===

Maureen is wrapping up her project to develop a thematic Web collection at NLM (called “Disorders of the Developing and Aging Brain: Autism and Alzheimer’s on the Web.”). During our call, Maureen shared how she developed a thematic web collection at NLM to fill in the gaps.

Maureen's presentation is here: [[file:NDSA_Harlowe.pdf‎]]

===Web Archiving Survey update===

On the survey, we are working through the results and there were a number of people assigned to each take a section. We have made a first pass, and will have the final results by the summer meeting. We will do a couple of blog posts by end of June, and in the meantime have to do some writing and chart making. We will circulate a draft to the list.

===Summer meeting===

Do we want a CWG in person meeting Monday at LC, or lunch/dinner gathering?

There is meeting space at the Library if we want to meet on Monday afternoon. This way we could hold an in-person meeting. In advance, we should discuss what we'd like to cover at the face-to-face. Alternatively we could meet over dinner or during happy hour. There was consensus to meet on Monday, and then possibly dinner or happy hour after.
