Records Mgmt & Archiving

The Smithsonian Institution Archives (SIA) and the Rockefeller Archive Center (RAC) are engaged in a collaborative three-year project to develop, test, and share the technology to preserve digital documents with other non-profit organizations. SIA and RAC will develop and test electronic records preservation, focusing on email, that will draw on the SIA’s more established framework for developing methodologies, and that will draw on the RAC’s network of donor institutions for testing the preservation system and strategies.
