Welcome to the Digital Preservation Services Community

The Digital Preservation Services Community is the open and common playground which brings together solutions supporting long-term preservation of digitally encoded information. First contribution is provided by the CASPAR project, based on the OAIS reference model (ISO:14721:2003). You can find our community on Facebook too.

The CASPAR Project is a european research project on Digital Preservation co-funded by the European Commission from 2006 to 2009, within the Sixth Framework Programme. The Digital Preservation Services Community is adopting the following approach: Open specification, Open software and Open documentation. The Digital Preservation Services Community web site represents the unified access point for: software development: the software code is open and available on the Sourceforge subversion and may be browsed. More, software artifacts are available for free download; accessing specification and documentation, defined by the developers. Sharing knowledge is a way to preserve it. social network group on Facebook
