Conclusions
Objective: benchmark the broad classes of service a
digital archival repository might supply
“menu” of possible services
common ground for discussion among stakeholders to
achieve consensus on minimum service level
Services collectively represent full spectrum of
archiving activity:
minimum service level may extend to all or part of spectrum
“minimum” does not mean “minimal”
Services constituting minimum requirements may be:
provided by a single entity
de-centralized across multiple entities
