As promised, here's the first of the series of updates featuring the projects that each of the working group will focus on.

Content Working Group
Co-Chairs: Abbie Grotke ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>) and Cathy Hartman ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>)
The Content Group has two projects. The first is focused on developing or contributing to a registry of content already preserved by NDSA members. Work has already begun to identify what existing registries there are and future tasks have been identified. More information is here: http://www.loc.gov/extranet/wiki/osi/ndiip/ndsa/index.php?title=Content_Registry_Action_Team

Our second project is will be developing a clearinghouse that will enable a variety of stakeholders to determine what specific types of content or collections are at risk. As a part of this, we will be identifying at-risk content or collections for preservation, and matching orphan collections with appropriate trusted partner for access and preservation. The group has already begun its work in determining what specific types of content or collections are at risk. For more information: http://www.loc.gov/extranet/wiki/osi/ndiip/ndsa/index.php?title=Clearinghouse_Action_Team
