4. Thirteen Ways … Preservation n … an ongoing activity n … a set of agreed outcomes n … an understood responsibility n … a selection process n … an economically sustainable activity n … a cooperative effort n … an innocuous activity n … an aggregated or disaggregated service n … a complement to other library services n … a well understood process n … an arm’s length transaction n … one of many options n … a public good Themes Deep Blue Perspectives Metadata Auditing Incentives Content Lavoie/Dempsey “Thirteen Ways…”

5. Excuse me… fallacies n Digital preservation is very expensive [because] n File formats become obsolete very rapidly [which means that] n Interventions must occur frequently, ensuring that continuing costs remain high. n Digital preservation repositories should have very long timescale aspirations, n 'Internet-age' expectations are such that the preserved object must be easily and instantly accessible in the format de jour, and n the preserved object must be faithful to the original in all respects. Themes Deep Blue Perspectives Metadata Auditing Incentives Content Rusbridge

6. What is a library, anyway? Themes Deep Blue Perspectives Metadata Auditing Incentives Content Keller, Reich, Herkovic “That libraries may be becoming obsolete is, to some degree, plausible, not because they are losing some kind of competition with the Internet for eyeballs or compellingly superior content, but rather because libraries may be in the process of abandoning their role as collection builders and managers.”
