#ipres2024 - the year that cats were replaced by horses in #digipres … file under #preservationwatch #designatedcommunity
We also found that the lack of clarity about how to identify and describe a #DesignatedCommunity was a source of risk because it created opportunities for stakeholders in the audit process to justify sub-optimal preservation policies and practices. #ISO16363 #TRAC

I'm excited to share with y'all that Laura Rothfritz & I have an article in the Journal of Documentation "Designated Community: uncertainty and risk"

Here: https://doi.org/10.1108/JD-07-2022-0161

And #OpenAccess at: https://trace.tennessee.edu/utk_infosciepubs/467/

In this article we find that uncertainty about #DesignatedCommunity in the context of a #TRAC #ISO16363 audit is viewed as a source of risk to digital repositories and their collections.
