Statement of Purpose
The Content 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.
Current Scope of Work
The Content Working Group’s current scope of work is to:
A) Develop or contribute to a registry of content already preserved by NDSA members.
B) Develop a clearinghouse that will enable a variety of stakeholders (content producers, archives and libraries and other potential preservationists) to:
- Determine what specific types of content or collections are at risk.
- Identify at-risk content or collections for preservation.
- Match orphan collections with appropriate trusted partner for access and preservation.

Participation
Participation in the Content Working Group is restricted to NDSA member organizations. Contact co-chairs Cathy Hartman (Cathy.Hartman@unt.edu) and Abbie Grotke (abgr@loc.gov) to join the working group.
Participants in the working group will participate in working group phone calls, undertake tasks to help the working group accomplish goals, and be active in helping accomplish the goals of the working group.
Action Teams may be created around specific tasks. These Action Teams may be self organized by members of the working group and may include non-NDSA members as the work requires. Non-NDSA members will not be participants in the Working Group but may contribute to the activities of any Action Team. Action Teams will update the Working Group about their accomplishments and progress.
