Content Working Group Charter
Charter Document (Word Version, updated December 22, 2010). Note: the content of the charter also appears on this wiki and will be updated more frequently on the wiki. The Word doc will be updated when substantial changes are made and we need to share outside of the wiki.
Current Members
A list of current members is posted here: NDSA:Content Working Group Members.
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.
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.
Visit the NDSA:Content Registry Action Team (Group A) page for more information.
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.
Visit the NDSA:Clearinghouse Action Team (Group B) page for more information.
