APARSEN Webinar: Long Term Preservation and Digital Rights Management, 10 March 2014
The next APARSEN webinar ´Long Term Preservation and Digital Rights Management,' will be held on 10 March, 2 p.m. CET. Digital Preservation is all about longterm accessibility, re-usability and understandability of digital objects. Environments and objects with digital rights management (DRM) pose extra challenges for digital preservation. The APARSEN project has researched in-depth the risks, challenges and approaches for preservation of DRM systems and explored approaches and measures to ensure longterm accessibility of objects.
As part of the project, risk assessments and surveys were held and use cases made. The results of this research will be discussed in the webinar.
