The eArchiving initiative counts on organisations and institutions to share knowledge and build the eArchiving community.
The eArchiving Stakeholders
The eArchiving Initiative is built upon shared knowledge and experiences, which are the basis for creating the eArchiving community and increasing capacity building within the various constituent organisations:
| Data producers | Those entities that are, or expect to be in the future, directly or indirectly responsible for depositing content in a digital archive for long-term digital preservation, which guarantees that information remains available, have not changed over time and retains the legal value. |
|
|---|---|---|
| Archives | Those entities that are, or expect to be, directly or indirectly responsible for the governance of a digital archive, which provides long-term digital preservation. |
|
| Solution providers | Those entities that are, or expect to be in the future, providers of technology or services for digital archives or for data creators. |
|
| Regulatory agencies and policymakers | Regulatory agencies and policymakers. Those entities (public authorities or government agencies) that are, or expect to be in the future, responsible for preparing, issuing and/or supervising the execution of regulations and policies related to the long-term preservation of digital information. | |
| Academics | Those entities that are, or expect to be in the future, educators/researchers who wish to incorporate some or all of the eArchiving curriculum into their existing or future courses. This stakeholder group all include students studying on such courses. | |
| Data Consumers | Organisations or individuals that want and/or need to reuse the information kept within an archive. Consumers are a broad stakeholder group with further subgroups. |
