Subject: [External] [NDSA-All] Now available: Statewide and Regional LOCKSS 2.0 Digital Preservation Network Implementation Toolkit

Dear Colleagues,

The Michigan Digital Preservation Network (MDPN) is pleased to share the Statewide and Regional LOCKSS 2.0 Digital Preservation Network Implementation Toolkit<https://mipres.org/index.php/resources/toolkit-resources/> with the digital preservation community. This Toolkit serves as the deliverable for the MDPN's National Leadership Grant (LG-252394-OLS-22) from the Institute of Library Services (IMLS), Demonstrating and Documenting a Statewide LOCKSS 2.0 Preservation Network for Cultural Memory Institutions<https://www.imls.gov/sites/default/files/project-proposals/LG-252394-OLS-22-full-proposal.pdf>.


The MDPN was funded by IMLS to demonstrate a replicable model for a collaborative distributed digital preservation network using the LOCKSS 2.0 software<https://www.lockss.org/about/software> and prioritizing easy-to-use workflows for non-technical users to help make digital preservation services accessible to cultural memory institutions that are financially or technically under-resourced or have limited staff or preservation knowledge.

The Toolkit shares several reusable and adaptable resources across five focus areas - community formation, technical infrastructure, workflow development, governance, and outreach and training - that the MDPN and its members developed during the grant period. This Toolkit is intended to help guide groups of collaborators seeking to build a new distributed digital preservation network or existing networks seeking guidance in one or more of the focus areas.

The MDPN would like to acknowledge the MDPN community members that contributed to this Toolkit and to the grant project, as well as our partners at the LOCKSS Program<https://www.lockss.org/> at Stanford Libraries and APTrust<https://aptrust.org/> for their technical support throughout.

The MDPN hopes the community finds this Toolkit useful, and we welcome any feedback or questions.

Thank you,
