Agenda

• ARCLib project roots – Czech Digital Library

– LTP Pilot

• ARCLib project goals

• open source system for a digital library

• https://github.com/ceskaexpedice/kramerius

• digital document production and administration system

• https://github.com/proarc/proarc/wiki

• digitization workflow management system

• https://github.com/proarc/proarc/wiki/RDflow

LTP Pilot

• Context (NDK, NDA + CRP project, NFA, WA, Regions,

Academic repositories)

• Growing level of recognition of the digital archiving

needs (OAIS translation, one DSA certified repository…)

• Research data and e-born data (Dspace community,

Horizon 2020)

LTP Pilot

+ Lower the barriers in access to LTP technologies

+ Stimulate interest in digital preservation

+ Join the forces – heritages + academe

LTP Pilot

• Test implementation and evaluation of Archivematica

as low barrier LTP solution

• Financed from CESNET Development Fund, 14 month,

2014-15, Masaryk University, Moravian Library, +

external staff from other academic and heritage

institutions

• Integration of Archivematica with CESNET storage,

test ingests and configuration for real life collections

• Other project goals – popularizing LTP,

creating community and spreading

expertise (workshop, AV manuals, etc)

ARCLib

• Applied research grant from Ministry of Culture of CR

• NAKI II programme

• Technologies and methodologies for preservation of culture heritage

2016-2020

850k Euro

ARCLib

Goals:

• Develop complex OS LTP system using

Archivematica as 1 of its components

• Logical preservation methodology for

Czech institutions

• Bit level preservation– methodically and

technologically

ARCLib

ARCLib stages and expected results:

1. 2016-2018 – Analyses and design – 4 x research articles – 2 x certified methodology – ARCLib development begins

2. 2019-2020 – Development and integration of components

– SW development completed – Pilot implementation – 4 x research articles

ARCLib

Year 1 – key decisions

• Architecture and planning

• Archivematica, yes or no?

• Networked storage or local?

• What to cover – include research data,

archive collections, e-born data, where to

integrate

• Methodology, policies, standards
