Rachael replied they were working their way through developing such policies and would make them available when completed. b) M. Stoeller/ NYU -asked about how they were dealing with privacy issues.

Rachael Howard from the Univ. of Louisville, where she is 1 of 2 Digital Initiative Librarians, presented. They use ContentDM as an underlying platform, and they did not have any campus IT-specific infrastructure. She spoke of working with other libraries/organizations to collaborate. New projects include working with Omeka for at least 2 new projects, and they are also founding members of the MetaArchive Alliance. There was a question from C.

She advised others that it is "labor-intensive but exciting".
Next was the presentation by Chris Dietrich of the National Park Service Information Services Dept. Chris showed the NPS Focus web page, while noting that a new web page was coming as the current infrastructure was approx. 10 years old. He felt that all NPS assets were not being fully utilized. G. McAnanich asked questions about their digital preservation, and Chris replied that they are using the NDSA Levels of Preservation document to inform their understanding, they do not utilize checksums, they are duplicating content, and some content will be archived by NARA. However, there are some issues regarding that relationship as NPS regularly needs access to the assets, so "it is not the perfect system for us". Chris said that more organizational education is needed about digital preservation.
