209.1 Policy-based collaborative approaches to preserving electronic government information. (Part 1)

This panel brings together government officials, researchers and librarians engaged in policy-making and digital preservation activities. Through facilitated and moderated dialog, this panel will present the perspectives of both government agencies and distributed institutions in policy-based collaborative activities. Session attendees will leave with a greater understanding of government information preservation initiatives, challenges in establishing and coordinating initiatives, policy and approaches for ensuring long-term success, and, hopefully, ways to become involved in new initiatives. This session will also help to inform the research of the PEGI Project’s white paper which aims to synthesize and advance the discussion, document current efforts and define best practices that can inform policy around information dissemination, preservation and access.

本论坛汇聚了参与政策制定与数字保存活动的政府官员、研究人员及图书馆员。通过引导与调节的对话，本论坛将呈现政府机构与分布式机构在政策导向的协作活动中的观点。与会者将更深入地理解政府信息保存的倡议、建立与协调倡议的挑战、确保长期成功的政策和途径，以及有望参与新倡议的方法。本论坛还将有助于为PEGI项目白皮书提供信息，该白皮书旨在综合并推进讨论，记录当前的努力，并定义可指导信息传播、保存与获取政策的最优实践。
