Since June 2002 ERPANET (the European Commission funded Electronic Resource Preservation and Access Network http://www.erpanet.org) has run a series of seminars and workshops across Europe, bringing together international experts to explore topics related to digital preservation. This one-day workshop aims to make accessible the results of several of these events to UK archivists and records managers. The day begins with a brief introduction and is followed by an explanation of how policies and procedures can be used to improve the preservation of digital materials and then by an examination of the current models for creating and populating digital repositories. The afternoon session begins with a review of current approaches to metadata and then examines how audit and certification procedures can contribute to ensure that effective preservation methods are adopted and maintained. The penultimate session of the day makes accessible recent thinking on the deployment of ISO15489 to provide a unified model of records management. There will be opportunities for discussion in each session as well as at the close of the day.
