Das Projekt LuKII (LOCKSS-und-KOPAL-Infrastruktur-und-Interoperabilität) – eine Herangehensweise an Digitale Langzeitarchivierung für Deutschland

Abstract

LuKII (LOCKSS-and-KOPAL-Infrastructure-and-Interoperabiliy) is a German research project in the field of long-term preservation. It is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) and project partners are the German National Library (DNB) and the Berlin School for Library and Information Science (IBI) at Humboldt University, Berlin (HU). The project will take parts of two existing long-term preservation systems, LOCKSS (Lots Of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) and kopal (Kooperativer Aufbau eines Langzeitarchivs digitaler Informationen) to build an efficient infrastructure for long-term preservation in Germany. Long-term preservation touches all scholarly fields, but currently no efficient system exists that uses bitstream-preservation and warrants integrity and long-term usability of the digital objects.
