Translations:Digital Archiving Lifecycle/11/en

It should be said that there is no single universal model to describe the digital archiving process. The models applied vary depending on an archive’s content, purpose, users, and the archiving organization’s policies and practices. The life cycle model of digital archiving used in this manual was developed to tailor it to the specific needs and challenges of CSOs. It reflects some of the elements of the OAIS Reference Model and partly the structure of the DCC Curation Life Cycle Model. The OAIS Model is the most widely used model for digital archiving. At the same time, the DCC Life Cycle Model includes many considerations that affect CSOs engaged in digital archiving.
