Preserving Europe's Memory
Abstract:
EC Project PRESTO has completed a survey of the holdings and preservation status
of ten major broadcast archives. These archives represent a significant portion
of total European broadcast archives, including some of the largest individual
collections. Approximately 75% of this material is at risk or inaccessible. The
collections are growing at roughly four times the rate of current preservation
work. The technical developments produced by project PRESTO reduce the costs
and improve the effectiveness of multimedia archive preservation projects.
