Abstract

This research investigates the relationship between physical and digital preservation management in Australian national, state and territory libraries. It systematically investigates this relationship from the viewpoint of higher level principles, then from the aspect of technical and administrative strategies, followed by a special focus on the strategy of disaster management. The results reveal that, in contrast to the widely held view that ‘digital is different’, there are significant interconnections between the two domains. The interconnections include higher level principles as well as a number of strategies, while noting barriers and areas of disconnect such as the specialist knowledge and skills in each domain. The findings encourage new ways of thinking about digital and physical preservation management, leading to opportunities to link the two domains and to share knowledge.
