PDFR110 | Asking and answering the big questions help shape
the way legal issues are addressed in the context of humanities projects. Collecting
digital creative or original works prompts concerns about a wide range of possible
legal issues – copyright, contract, and privacy to name but a few. These legal responsibilities
are significant but should be considered in the larger context of the socially-valuable
stewardship responsibilities libraries, archives, and museums engage in or new ways
of teaching and approaching education | Are you scanning special
collections of distinct analog materials (books, sound recordings, artwork)? – or
collecting and preserving digital-only web-based material? – or setting up preservation
and emulation collections for digital video games? High-level principles, policies, and
standards can help you develop responsible, productive projects even for very different
kinds of materials or collections | The following questions are meant to help project managers plan and recognize some
of the matters that should be addressed – this list is by no means comprehensive. (This
list is influenced by the Digital Preservation Workshop led by Nancy McGovern and
Kari Smith: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/dpm/workshops/instructors.html.) |
