Hi All, The NDSA Content Group's survey of Alliance member use of existing digitization/preservation registries closes TODAY (5/6) at 5pm Alaska/9pm Eastern. I want to thank the 30 Alliance institutions who have responded thus far and invite the rest of you to take a few minutes to complete our five question survey before the end of the day. The original call is below. Thanks in advance for your answers! - Daniel Cornwall, Chair, Content Registry Action Team ------------------------------------- Dear Alliance Members, The Content Registry Action Team needs your help for three minutes. We have been charged with investigating whether to build a registry of digital projects being preserved by Alliance members. The first step in this process is to see if there is already a project registry in existence that Alliance members are using. Our team has identified a number of registries for digital projects and would like to know if your institution uses them. We have created a FIVE question survey at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/MBN9FZH which we estimate will take between three and five minutes to complete. Ideally one person per institution should take this survey. Please take a few moments to take our survey. We will make the results public after the survey closes on Friday, May 6, 2011. Your three minutes will help determine whether the Alliance builds its own registry tool or works with an existing project.

Thanks in advance for your three minute contribution towards making preservation projects more visible. - Daniel Cornwall, chair Content Registry Action Team ======================================= Daniel Cornwall Head of Technical and Imaging Services Division of Libraries, Archives and Museums PO Box 110571 Juneau, AK 99811-0571 Phone (907) 465-6332 Fax (907) 465-2665 E-Mail: [log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]> Web: http://lam.alaska.gov <http://lam.alaska.gov/> . ############################ To unsubscribe from the NDSA-ALL list: write to: mailto:[log in to unmask] or click the following link: http://list.digitalpreservation.gov/SCRIPTS/WA-DIGITAL.EXE?SUBED1=NDSA-ALL&A=1
