Consultation with Stakeholders Background Research Planning Outcomes Scenario Planning Infrastructure Components Listening and Learning Planning Phase, 2001-2002 MARCH 2003
Consultation with Stakeholders • Established the NDSAB in Spring 2001 • Representation from federal agencies, industry, research libraries and foundations • Convened Stakeholder Meetings in Fall 2001 • 3 workshops including 100 industry representatives MARCH 2003

Collections Interfaces Gateways Repositories Preservation Architecture • 4 Layers Between People and Bits MARCH 2003
The Preservation Architecture must: • Support relationships between institutions • Allow questions of preservation to be handled separately from questions of access • Be built modularly, using existing technology and efforts where possible • Be able to be assembled over time, rather than needing to be built all at once • Be upgradeable in pieces, without disrupting the whole system, and • Be specified using broadly adoptable protocols Interfaces Collections Gateways Repositories MARCH 2003
