Tóm tắt

In 1989, Cornell University embarked on a collaborative project experimenting with the concept of digital preservation. With Cornell's commitment to a universal network infrastructure on campus, the network would provide a natural home for the proposed digital library. Anne Kenney, from Cornell University Library (CUL), and M. Stuart Lynn, from Cornell Information Technologies (CIT), established a partnership, developed a plan, and assembled staff to implement it. Working closely with Xerox Corporation and with support from the Commission on Preservation and Access, and later Sun Microsystems, they defined the requirements for library preservation and access.
