Image creation may be a way of preserving the analog object, and with this action, reducing the need of letting a researcher access the original analog artifacts. These newly created digital objects used for viewing are saved in the archive with metadata about the digitization actions added to them; thus, such digital objects become part of a digital preservation plan where the analog artifact will be the resource to use if the preservation action makes the digital copy corrupt. The digitized copy will not be considered as the new original and the analog artifact is used as evidence. These different kinds of digital objects found in the archives and the special characteristics in the information required as evidence impact the need and use of digital preservation metadata.

It will give a basic overview of the standard and explore different models of implementation. The METS schema is a standard for encoding descriptive, administrative, and structural metadata regarding objects within a digital library as well as digital archives, expressed using the XML schema language of the World Wide Web Consortium. It is maintained by the METS Board and the METS Maintenance Activity is managed by the Library of Congress.

In order to do so the report describes the workflows and use cases of archival access services, and ultimately makes use of these these to present a set of requirements which should be followed when designing a DIP format. As access to archival records is largely dependent on the tools and environments used, the secondary aim of the deliverable is to go beyond the DIP format and look closely at the tools needed for preparing and using the DIP.

But this digital information has to remain available for long periods, often beyond the life expectancy of individual information systems or technological components. This poses a significant challenge for both the original data creators and digital archives that have to be capable of both dealing with the most current information technology, and with “saving” information from legacy systems. To deal with these challenges, it is necessary to bridge the gap between the methods used in digital preservation and content creation and introduce additional practical interoperability into the solutions used for a Digital Single Market and digital preservation infrastructures. The European Commission recognized the need in 2013 and funded the E-ARK project (2014–2017), which successfully delivered a set of principles, specifications and tools that provided an interoperable and international solution for the sustainable long-term availability of digital information. This paper describes the solutions developed by the E-ARK project, focusing on the SIP format, as well as the steps the European Commission is taking toward building a thriving digital preservation community around the E-ARK outcomes.
