2014 National Agenda for Digital Stewardship

The National Digital Stewardship Alliance (NDSA) is in a unique position to identify and communicate the challenges, opportunities, and priorities for digital preservation activities in the United States. The 2014 National Agenda for Digital Stewardship identifies emerging trends, opportunities, and gaps in national digital stewardship activity. The agenda is intended to be of use to NDSA members and to the digital preservation community as a whole. This agenda is not focused on assigning activities for the NDSA working groups. Rather, the agenda it is an evaluation of the year’s challenges and emerging issues that would inform digital preservation work across the nation.

The 2014 National Agenda for Digital Stewardship is authored by the NDSA joint leadership group. This group is made up of the Coordinating Committee members, the Working Group co-chairs, and the NDSA facilitator. The 2014 Agenda will be authored by:

  • Micah Altman
  • Jefferson Bailey
  • Karen Cariani
  • Jim Corridan
  • Blane Dessy
  • Michelle Gallinger
  • Andrea Goethals
  • Abbie Grotke
  • Cathy Hartman
  • Butch Lazorchak
  • Jane Mandelbaum
  • Carol Minton-Morris
  • Trevor Owens
  • Meg Phillips
  • Amy Rudersdorf
  • John Spencer
  • Helen Tibbo
  • Tyler Walters
  • Kate Wittenberg
  • Kate Zwaard


This is not intended to be an extensive report out on a research activity; it is a succinct communication piece (approximately 5 pages). The agenda is an executive-level list of the challenges and opportunities in the digital preservation space for the year ahead. Short paragraphs may add further detail and substance.

Logistics:

  • Co-chairs will request ideas to be nominated by the working groups
  • Michelle Gallinger will act as document compiler and editor.
