Codes of ethics reflect the core values of an organization; with the variety of data, staff, and contributors working with the DRI, its ethical code must be wide-ranging enough to reflect its diverse nature, but specific enough to effectively guide the reader to a morally sound conclusion in the face of an ethical problem. Reviewing the reasons for a code of ethics, the methods involved, the challenges, the expected outcomes, and organizational input, this article will relay the experience of writing a professional code of ethics for the Digital Repository of Ireland.

The project “Repository of Styrian Cultural Heritage” aims to build a digital archive of cultural heritage objects. The implementation of a common platform poses two challenges: 1) the partners use more than one preservation infrastructure, which requires a consensus for harvesting mechanisms and update workflows; and 2) the nature of the digital objects ranges from manuscripts or other text-based resources to artifacts from various contexts. With respect to information retrieval and in order to implement a uniform object representation, a consistent data basis is obligatory. In this context, the article will introduce our approaches to content curation and quality control.

As a partner in the EU co-funded 3D-ICONS project, the Discovery Programme has surveyed a wide range of the iconic cultural heritage sites in Ireland. This project aimed to establish a complete pipeline for the production of 3D replicas of archaeological monuments and historic buildings, and to publish the content to Europeana for public access. Challenges discussed include: making such high resolution data sets available to the public to enable online interaction and via the web, creating suitable and representative metadata and IPR frameworks for 3D cultural heritage data.

Digital assets in contemporary performing arts practice may suffer damage and disappearance, eroding the record of contemporary practice. This study seeks to assess this threat and suggest solutions. We examined digital curation and preservation awareness and practice in a sample of performing arts professionals, establishing that digital objects are highly prized but levels of sustainable digital curation and preservation practice are low. We argue that competent digital curation and preservation is relevant to arts career sustainability, research, and wider cultural heritage. This article is intended to be relevant to policy and skills development in communities of creative practice beyond the academy.

The Digital Repository of Ireland (DRI) is Ireland’s national trusted digital repository for the social and cultural, historical and contemporary data held by Irish institutions. DRI provides users with a bilingual (Irish and English) user interface at all user access levels, and provides innovative ways to process and display bilingual metadata. This article details our experience in enriching the bilingual metadata and developing the bilingual features of the repository. We present solutions to some of the linguistic and technical challenges we faced and provide recommendations to developers and archivists on how best to prepare bilingual content for contemporary archival repositories.

Media archives have begun implementing digital preservation processes and strategies. However, a robust take-up of digital preservation standards such as OAIS has not occurred. A key question is whether or not implementing these standards is relevant in all media archives. Six media archives, representing three different “types”—broadcast, hybrid and national libraries—were studied to gain a better understanding of how digital preservation norms fit into their mission, what drives their requirements, and whether in fact digital preservation is relevant to their main “business.”

This article looks at the complex nature of developing effective and appropriate strategies for the preservation of born digital art, in particular networked art. These issues are approached from the perspective of artist practitioners as it is suggested that any preservation strategy begins with artists, with the conservation practices that are inculcated into the very act of creation. This article proposes that this necessitates institutional digital art conservation initiatives originating from a pre-existing culture of preservation within digital art communities.

In this article we offer some analytical comments on the digitization of the National Library of Israel (NLI), which has been converting materials into digital formats since 2007. This research draws upon Actor-Network Theory and is based on participant observation within the Digitization Center of the NLI. Specifically, we ask how human and non-human actors—namely scanning technicians and graphic designers, scanners, manuscripts and ephemera—are co-embedded in the production of the corpus that will likely be the basis for historical accounts in the future; and what their inter-relationships can tell us about the digitization of heritage.

The proliferation of digital resources is an important manifestation of data sharing and knowledge sharing practice. There is an increasing recognition of the importance of understanding the actual impact of these resources on research and research practice. Impact assessment methodologies are emerging from this nascent scholarship and offer a means of demonstrating performance and utility. This study took a multi-strand approach, inspired by the Toolkit for the Impact of Digitised Scholarly Resources (TIDSR), to evaluate seven digital resources relating to Irish archaeology. The results indicated significant factors that can influence the impact of a digital resource, positively or negatively.
