General overviews:

Digital Curation and Preservation Bibliography, maintained by Charles W. Bailey, Jr.--most materials date to 2000 or later; this is the current (2012) version.http://digital-scholarship.org/dcpb/dcpb.htm

Materials pertaining to process in the class: Reflective practice

The links below point to materials on reflective/critical journaling as an assistance in helping you learn through surfacing what you are thinking, what is going on, etc., so you can come to grips with it. Each was prepared for a specific context, but they provide ideas for how to get started. In general, think narrative rather than checklist, though checklists can help you consider things to write about.

Videogame Preservation

Note that videogames as composite objects will also draw on many other preservation processes.

Materials Pertinent to Digital Archaeology:

Collaborative Electronic Records Project: Evaluation of Tools: http://siarchives.si.edu/cerp/RAC_SIA_CERP_tools_V2.pdf

Representation and Rendering Project, University of Leeds. Paul Wheatley, "Survey and assessment of sources of information on file formats and software documentation." This 2003 review of file format repositories, though a little old, has a useful overview of issues with older file formats and will be of help if you are dealing with strange file formats or are formulating a recommendation for long-term tracking of file-format expertise. Available at: http://www.jisc.ac.uk/uploaded_documents/FileFormatsreport.pdf

NDIIPP Partner Tools and Services contains descriptions of available products of NDIIPP-funded projects; alas many of them have, after the money ran out, been abandoned: http://www.digitalpreservation.gov/partners/resources/tools/index.html

General Resources:

Many significant resources for digital preservation exist online and should be actively used.

Dutch National Library Knowledge Base for Digital Preservation: this resource contains links to just about everything that is available up to 2010: http://en.archief.nl/knowledge-base/digital-preservation

The Preserving Access to Digital Information (PADI) site (http://www.nla.gov.au/padi/), maintained by the National Library of Australia (although discontinued in summer 2010, the site is still maintained and is rich in resources), is indispensable and its cooperative notion of "Safekeeping" is worth study in itself.

There is also now a German preservation site that goes under the name of the Nestor project (English version: http://www.langzeitarchivierung.de/eng/index.htm); they are cooperating with PADI but have additional materials for Germany.

A new report on "distributed archiving" using the LOCKSS model is here: A Guide to Distributed Digital Preservation

The British National Archives PRONOM file-format registry site is available at http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/pronom/ It includes a collection of useful tools from all over the planet for extracting metadata, detecting file formats, etc.

Chris Lacinak, "A Primer on Codecs for Moving Image and Sound Archives," just released: AVPS_Codec_Primer.pdf

Anne Marie Donovan, Maria Esteva, Addy Sonder, and Sue Trombley, "Proposal for Establishment of a DSpace Digital Repository at the School of Information, University of Texas at Austin," final report for 2003 INF 392K class, focus on archiving the iSchool website and appraisal decisions made.
Find the paper here, plus appendices A, B, C, and D.

Carlos Ovalle has provided this link to the UT ITS document on what they refer to as "data classification" (for "sensitivity"/security considerations) :
http://www.utexas.edu/its/policies/opsmanual/dataclassification.html
This information should be taken into account when considering IP issues with the collections you will be working with.

In 2004 Galloway wrote this overview of digital object preservation:
Patricia Galloway, "Preservation of Digital Objects", volume 38 (2004), Annual Review of Information Science and Technology, Chapter 11, 549-590. Available on e-reserves.

Here is a useful PPT outline of the basics of OAIS, By Michael Day, University of Bath: The OAIS Reference Model

You may also want to check the contents of several online publications regularly, as they tend to carry useful articles on developments in digital preservation (and they also should be venues in which you aspire to publish)--some have listservs and increasingly there are RSS feeds available:

D-Lib: http://www.dlib.org

Journal of Digital Information (JoDI): http://journals.tdl.org/jodi

RLG DigiNews: moved in the OCLC merger, but if you have a citation to track down or want to browse, see: http://www.oclc.org/programs/publications/newsletters/diginews.htm
