Preservation Metadata for Digital Objects: A Review of the State of the Art, a White Paper by the OCLC/RLG Working Group on Preservation Metadata, January 31, 2001.
"Collaborative efforts between the Research Libraries Group and OCLC Online Computer Library Center have produced a report identifying common goals and approaches to digital preservation metadata".
A working group was formed with the objective of developing "a comprehensive metadata framework applicable to a broad range of digital preservation activity. The paper shares the group's early thinking and exploration with a view to developing the necessary consensus among stakeholders."
The White Paper may be found online at the OCLC web site <http://www.oclc.org/digitalpreservation/> in PDF format.

Point to Point
Arts and Humanities Data Service (AHDS) Case Studies on Digitization, funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Board.
The AHDS Case Studies currently number eighteen and more will be added. The case studies show the benefits and obstacles in the creation, delivery and preservation of digital resources. Some provide general introductions to digitization, while others explore particular issues in greater detail, such as funding, copyright, standards, metadata, preservation and delivery. A variety of AHDS-related projects are examined. Different subject areas in the arts and humanities are covered, and examples are drawn from small projects that are close to completion to large-scale programs that are still in the planning stage.
The case studies are located at <http://ahds.ac.uk/casestudies/casestudies.html>.

Libraries. The lecturers of the school are leading researchers in the
digital library field, from both the U.S. and Europe. Each lecture will be
devoted to a presentation of the state-of-the-art on one of the key DL
topics. The DELOS Network of Excellence is an initiative funded by the
fifth Framework Program of the European Commission, within the Key Action
on Multimedia Contents and Tools of the Information Society Technologies
(please visit the web site at <http://www.ercim.org/delos> for further information

Aims and Objectives
The main purpose of the school is to foster research in and understanding of
the fundamental technologies underlying the Digital Libraries (DL) field. The school is
directed towards members of the research community in the wide sense, that
is, graduate students, young researchers and professionals involved in R&D
in DL-related areas, possibly representing both the information technology
scientist, the industrial communities (electronic publishing, broadcasting,
software industry, etc.) and the user communities interested in Digital
Libraries technologies (libraries, archives, museums). Study material will
be made available at the School.
Audience
No qualifications or prerequisites are necessary. However, it is recommended
that participants have a basic knowledge of information and database
management, together with Internet and Web applications.
Time Scale
The one-week intensive course will consist of nine half-day lectures and
one half-day session dedicated to BOF (Birds of a Feather) groups, i.e.,
discussions in smaller groups on specific topics of common interest, with
