?This is a fun question. Off the top of my head and in no particular order, I would say leading (US) academic institutions are: Stanford, Columbia, MIT, University of Virginia, and UNC. University of Michigan (especially the Bentley), Emory, UIUC, Maryland, and so many others are also notable, it's hard to pick a top five. A little promotion of my own institution: Indiana University is pretty trailblazing in terms of A/V preservation - with our MDPI<https://mdpi.iu.edu/> project we'll have 6.5PB of data very soon and this is leading us to work in the development of repository and storage solutions at scale.

A "large" amount of digital holdings can mean anything from 3TB to 40 TB to half a petabyte or more depending on who you talk to. "Access" can mean things as different as a catalog record/finding aid or online delivery of holdings content. Format variety is another consideration factor. These come out of my own experiences looking for peers with which to compare notes.

If you had to list 5 academic libraries currently leading the actual implementation of long-term digital preservation at both the planning and operational levels, who would you list?
