EU policy actions
Member States' Expert Group on Digitisation and Digital Preservation (2007)
- exchange of good practices, monitoring progress in EU Member States
Communication from the Commission: 'Scientific Information in the Digital Age: Access, Dissemination and Preservation' (2007)
- digital repositories for science and research- will be followed (first half 2012) by a
recommendation for improving access to, management of and preservation of scientific publications and data

Pioneer Work under FP6
• Awareness rising activities• Establishment of common problem
definitions, terminology and conceptsMemory institutions as drivers
• Building up a solid body of expertise in the European research community– influence on international standardisation
initiatives (e.g. PREMIS, OAIS, TRAC).

Recent and ongoing work
• Fundamental research– moved beyond the preservation of simple
documents and data towards interactive objects, embedded objects, ontologies and ephemeral data
– e. g. LiWA (Web archiving), PLANETS (validation of objects according to format specifications and of preservation actions)

••• 7
Recent and ongoing work
• Applied research & development– addressing needs of user communities holding
large collections of complex digital objects, e.g. audiovisual archives (PrestoPRIME)
– improving workflows through automation, decision support and scalability (e.g. SCAPE, ARCOMEM, ENSURE)
– broad range of use cases• industry and services sector: aerospace,
health care, finance• science: astronomy, genomics• governmental and broadcasters' archives• libraries and web archives

Recent and ongoing work
• Networking– broadening of the digital preservation
community– increasing participation of industry players as
solution providers or problem owners (e.g. APARSEN, SHAMAN, TIMBUS)
– Foundations• Open Planets Foundation: provides practical
solutions and expertise, building on R&D outputs of PLANETS
• competence centre for preservation of digital audiovisual material: PrestoCentre
