Digital Preservation in Libraries: Preparing for a Sustainable Future. By Jeremy Mynetti and Jessalyn Zoom. [Review]
Abstract
With the advent of digital technologies, long-term preservation of library holdings has challenged information professionals for the better part of three decades, if not longer. Much has been written on the topic of digital preservation, and this book reflects the perspectives of libraries, archives, and museums (LAMs). While not specifically a “how-to” manual on digital preservation, those seeking a useful overview will find a balanced selection of writings exploring the topic as practiced primarily in the United States, other English-speaking countries, and Europe since the 1990s. Organized into six sections containing a total of 18 chapters, the writings naturally build upon each other in discussing key developments in best practices, workflows, and institutional programs.
