Description
This document is a technical Recommended Practice for use in developing a broader
consensus on what is required for an archive to provide permanent, or indefinite Long Term,
preservation of digital information.
This Recommended Practice establishes a common framework of terms and concepts which
make up an Open Archival Information System (OAIS). It allows existing and future
archives to be more meaningfully compared and contrasted. It provides a basis for further
standardization within an archival context and it should promote greater vendor awareness
of, and support of, archival requirements.
