  6. Parliamentary Briefing Paper “There is no overarching national strategy on digital preservation” “Records thought worthy of permanent preservation are dealt with under the 1958 Public Records Act, which doesn’t discriminate between paper and digital records” “In a 2008 survey of local authority archives, only half had a digital preservation policy. Funding, poor relations with IT support and lack of skills were cited as major barriers” “It is difficult to quantify costs and benefits of digital preservation, so funding can be hard to obtain and is often for short projects rather than ongoing solutions” September 2009

By making sure that everybody has the right information and capability … Breakout Group Questions … Do you have access to advice and support for digital curation and preservation activity? If so, where does it come from? Do you, or would you, collaborate on digital curation and preservation activity at local, national or international levels? What additional support would help you to do your work better? (training, access to tools, case studies, better idea of workflows etc.) What tools would help you to undertake curation and preservation activity more effectively? Are you aware of any examples of good practice?
