Thanks for your replies, Stuart and Brian.

The information you provided got me to thinking more generally about what
comprehensive preservation could look like for the digitized cultural
heritage materials we are managing. As a content administrator for an
access repository, I am primarily concerned with the ability to retrieve
bitstreams and metadata from preservation cold storage in the event that we
lose data and our intermediate backup systems fail. I've visualized one
possible data restoration model in the following slides:

I'm curious what the C4L collective brain thinks about such an approach,
especially any pitfalls we should watch out for if we should choose to
implement this model.
