In a rapidly changing technological environment, the difficult task of ensuring
long-term access to digital information is increasingly important. The
Digital Curation and Preservation Bibliography 2010 presents over 500
English-language articles, books, and technical reports that are useful in
understanding digital curation and preservation. This selective bibliography
covers digital curation and preservation copyright issues, digital formats
(e.g., data, media, and e-journals), metadata, models and policies, national and
international efforts, projects and institutional implementations, research
studies, services, strategies, and digital repository concerns.
