Minutes
We started the meeting with a presentation from members Mitch Brodsky and Barbara Haws at the New York Philharmonic. They discussed the digital collections at the NYP, provided a demo of their site, and discussed their efforts to tackle born digital collections. Slides from their presentation are here: File:NYPhil CWG 020514.pdf
Questions for the presenters followed [get from notes]
We then had a few updates from the Content Teams:
Christie reported that the Science team's case studies are almost ready to be published. Abbie reported that the content team facilitators met recently to discuss the progress of the teams and ways in which people could work together.
Bradley Daigle then pitched his idea that was posted to the listserv recently:
NDSA has created a matrix to be used for the technical components of preservation (http://www.digitalpreservation.gov/ndsa/activities/levels.html). To that end, I propose we create a team to look at the curatorial side of digital preservation. This framework could be applied to the use cases that are being created and then mapped to the infrastructure matrix. The collecting framework can be found here (http://www.digitalcurationservices.org/sustaining-digital-scholarship/) and can be used as a starting point to the conversation. The levels are referred to as "collecting" levels since they are meant to be used by any staff member who has to deal with preserving digital content. These collecting levels can then be mapped to the technical implementation to form a complete cycle of curation.
He is looking for volunteers to help refine the curatorial framework and apply the NDSA user stories that we can then use to test the technological implementation. We could also look at framing this in terms of cost of services as well. Please contact him (bradley@virginia.edu) if you are interested or have any questions.
The coordinating committee is beginning to work on the the next (2015) National Agenda for Digital Stewardship. Cathy and Abbie encouraged CWG to help with suggestions for what digital content areas should be included in the agenda. Please post to the list or contact your co-chairs directly if you have any ideas or would like to help with this task.
Our next meeting will be March
