Abstract

Risk is a foundational concept in Trustworthy Digital Repository audit and certification processes. This poster examines attitudes about risk among staff members of CoreTrustSeal certified repositories. Findings indicate that repository staff members who have also served as reviewers for the CoreTrustSeal certification system, and those who have not, have similar at-titudes about potential sources of risk facing digital repositories. These groups also have similar attitudes about the importance of the CoreTrust-Seal requirement categories, however as a group those with experience as reviewers were more internally consistent in their responses than those without. This poster will examine these findings in greater detail, and will explore the similarities and differences between these two groups in order to understand whether and/or how the experience of serving as a reviewer shapes attitudes about risk in long-term digital preservation.
