A memory in danger
None of our archives is guaranteed a safe place in history. They are all in danger, but the threats may be different.
"Drowning by numbers"
Selection
Moderated by Steve Bryant
In many archives vast amounts of material has been kept thanks to comprehensive selection policies. These are now under threat as the carriers deteriorate, the replay technology becomes obsolete and changes in formats reduce accessibility.
Furthermore digital technology means more channels and output, and the opportunity to retain different versions.
Avoid drowning by establishing a value for your archive. In the digital era of multi channel output, how will we decide what will be preserved and made accessible? What is treasure, what is trash?
This will be a debate on the selection criteria and process from the following contrasting perspectives
- Academic : Bert Hogenkamp, Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision
- Heritage : Greg Lukow, Library of Congress
- Broadcaster : EBU
- Producer : Philippe Van Meerbeck , VRT
- Business/Commercial : Dan DiPierro, CBS News
- Engineer : Mike Cox, Mirador Techniques
- Archivist : Goran Konstenius, National Archive of Recorded Sound and Moving Images (Sweden)
How to decide what to transfer ? A methodological approach : Marie-Claire Amblard, INA
Summary conclusion : Sue Malden introduces the FIAT legacy archive selection criteria. |
