Today I read IASA's Guidelines on the Production...IASA-TC04, Chapter 7: Small Scale Approaches to Digital Storage Systems. This chapter simplified the OAIS (Open Archival Information System), and highlighted the most important aspects and provided cost-efficient recommendations for smaller institutions or small digital collection projects.
As I prepare a workflow for the School of Music audio project, I will have to examine the OAIS, and try to simplify steps. An OAIS consists of:
1) Ingest
2) Access
3) Administration
4) Data Management
5) Preservation Planning
6) Archival Storage
I will not be able to simplify the digitization (ingest), but if I can implement Dspace earlier on (if CUA has continued access and support to the Digital Object Catalog), I might be able to simply access.
Final comment--I was comforted to see that one sub-section in the chapter was titled "Single (or Double) Operator Storage System." I'm not the only a/v digitization team of one!
