4. University Digital Asset Created in fulfillment of the research, teaching, or creative work of University faculty, staff, or students; relevant to the planning, managing, operating, controlling, or auditing of administrative functions of an administrative or academic unit of the University; purchased or licensed by the university in fulfillment of an academic or administrative function under a contract that permits continuing use of the asset (for example, certain electronic journals licensed through the University Libraries).

5. Task Force Recommendations Creation of an integrated technical architecture designed around the whole lifecycle of digital information. Definition and assignment of a set of specific roles or functions exercised by staff within the University, and development of a set of policies to guide those roles. Education for faculty, staff, and administrators in the basic concepts and challenges in digital preservation and training in information management practices that will contribute to the ongoing availability of digital files.
