Abstract
ABSTRACT This introduction for this special issue on E-ARK and digital archiving sets out the rationale, objectives and work program carried out by the E-ARK project, a pan-European endeavour supported by the European Commission as part of their FP7 PSP CIP pilot B program to standardize and create tools for consistently transferring digital records between business systems and digital archives. The E-ARK project's segue into the eArchiving Building Block as part of the European Commission’s Connecting Europe Facility’s (CEF) Program is also detailed, together with an update on current activities. As part of the impetus for Open Data and transparent government, the E-ARK/eArchiving approach can be extremely effective in simplifying and making consistent, diverse approaches to solving the issue of how to transfer information between the ICT systems in use in, for example, government, and the archives charged with the responsibility for ongoing and management of the information considered to be of long-term significance. They are also applicable to a much wider range of situations where users need to archive digital material.
期刊介绍:
Information networking is an enabling technology with the potential to integrate and transform information provision, communication and learning. The New Review of Information Networking, published biannually, provides an expert source on the needs and behaviour of the network user; the role of networks in teaching, learning, research and scholarly communication; the implications of networks for library and information services; the development of campus and other information strategies; the role of information publishers on the networks; policies for funding and charging for network and information services; and standards and protocols for network applications.
