The first eArchiving Initiative virtual training webinar will take place on Thursday 27 April 2023, 10.00 - 11.30 CET and will be hosted by Sven Schlarb (AIT Austrian Institute of Technology).

This webinar will present a series of standards and recommendations offered by the European Commission’s eArchiving initiative, which define an Archival Information Package (AIP), that is designed to preserve the archival content with structural, descriptive, technical and preservation metadata.

Use cases will be provided to illustrate how eArchiving metadata can specify restrictions, concerning software or human agents, that want to manipulate the AIP (e.g., preservation actions). This will include demonstrating how the changes can be versioned and documented and how access conditions and agreements, regarding usage of DIPs, can be made to persist as part of the AIP.

Practical information about the event will be provided once the participant is registered.
