Digital Collections"

policy framework for the creation and long-term preservation of
those digital resources which will form our future cultural and
intellectual heritage. Case studies demonstrate how issues
identified in the framework have been addressed by organisations
in different business environments. A summary of best practice
and standards in implementing the framework is also included.
