Dr. Hans Hofman
The Nationaal Archief has obligation to ensure access and preservation of archival records through time, both paper and digital. In this respect it has a longstanding experience in preservation of paper records and providing public access. Over the last 10 years the NA has been developing its expertise through a series of pilot projects to acquire, ingest and preserve digital archival records. It is partner in different international collaborative efforts, such as the European funded ERPANET project (2001-2004), the InterPares research project (1999-2007), that has as objectives to provide guidelines, policies etc. on preserving digital objects in an authentic and understandable way; the DLM-forum (an EEIG), that brings together national archives in Europe on issues regarding electronic records and preservation, the ISO TC46/SC11, that is working on standards for records and records management (including metadata), Digital Preservation Europe (2006-..) a coordination action which fosters collaboration and synergies between many existing national initiatives across the European Research Area, and PLANETS project (2006 - …), an integrated research project that will develop a framework, tools and services for preservation planning and actions. Through these activities and its pilot projects the Dutch National Archives has worked to shape research and innovation in digital preservation and contributed to the delivery of guidelines, standards, tools and processes. |
