Panel Discussion - Preservation can sometimes seem more of an art than a science, how can preservation be automated in the real world?If you are attending Archives*Records 2019 in Austin, Texas join us for a panel and workshop session on
Sunday August 4th, 2019; 12:00 - 1:15 (Lunch will be provided).Our session will cover discussions on whether preservation can be done as a "black box" operation without people being in the loop about what is happening.
In this panel session and workshop we will explore to what extent digital preservation can, or should be automated.
We will discuss:
- The positives and negatives of automation in digital preservation
- When preservation can be automated and where do you need to draw the line
- How preservation can be automated in the real world when preservation can seem more like a science
- Can you trust automation?
We will be joined on the panel by Corrinne Collett, Archivist for Records Management and Information Services at
The Archives of the Episcopal Church, Annalise Berdini, Digital Archivist at
Princeton University and Walker Sampson, Digital Archivist at
University of Colorado, Boulder who will discuss their experiences in an interactive discussion with the audience.
