DCC Curation Lifecycle Model Workshop

01 December 2008 |

This workshop aims to introduce professionals charged with planning preservation and curation activities on the use of a lifecycle methodology. Participants will learn how to use, and customise, the DCC Curation Lifecycle Model to help define and develop curation or preservation workflows and activities within their organisation or consortium. The workshop will explain how to use the model to build granular functionality, to define roles and responsibilities, and build an implementable framework of standards and technologies. The use of relevant standards such as OAIS (ISO 14721:2003 Space data and information transfer systems - Open archival information system - Reference model) and ISO15489 (Information and documentation. Records management) will be introduced. The workshop will also explain how the DCC envisages using the model to contextualise a range of DCC and external resources to reflect, as accurately as possible, actual working practice.
