Digital Preservation for Libraries (DP4lib)

Project description

The aim of the Digital Preservation for Libraries (DP4lib) project was to create a long-term preservation infrastructure that was as sustainable and flexible as possible. With this in mind, the German National Library and Göttingen State and University Library (SUB) cooperated with other partners to build on the technical and functional results of the kopal project. These became the basis for the development of both a technical infrastructure and the service and operating models required to set up long-term preservation services. Moreover, a cost model was created within the project with which the costs of these services could be calculated.
