Registration closing in 1 week: Preservation Action Registries Workshop at the De Grey Rooms, York on 8th July 2019.

 

The Preservation Action Registries project (http://parcore.org) is developing a common and consistent way to describe and execute preservation policies and actions at a technical level. An initial data model has been created which defines a human and machine-readable way of describing preservation actions and the associated business rules that together make up preservation policies.

 

Participants will be introduced to the PAR project and data model, using examples of working preservation actions and business rules. In smaller groups, participants will be led through the process of describing a new preservation policy using the PAR data model. Finally, groups will present their work to the other groups.

 

Through this approach, the participants will gain valuable skills described below while the PAR consortium will also be able to answer key questions including:

• Can the PAR model effectively describe real world preservation scenarios
• What changes are needed to the PAR model to make it more effective, and in what preservation scenarios are they needed?
• How easy is it to use the PAR model in practice and how could it be simplified or improved?
