Abstract
Ensuring that IDEALS is indeed worthy of the trust of the faculty, students, and staff of the institution requires careful and deliberate planning and ongoing attention to digital preservation. With this in mind, this white paper provides a roadmap for the implementation of a comprehensive digital preservation management program for IDEALS. Specifically, this paper: Presents the current state of digital preservation for the pilot stage (through Spring 2007) of IDEALS; Specifies the minimum requirements for the ongoing production–level service (Summer 2007 and forward); Recommends that IDEALS pursues certification as a Trusted Digital Repository for endorsement by the IDEALS Working Group and Steering Committee; and Identifies the next steps for moving towards compliance as a Trusted Digital Repository.
