Hi everyone,

We are starting a digitization project for some of our special collections, and 
we are having a hard time setting up a backup system that meets the long-term 
preservation needs of digital archives. The backup mechanisms currently used by 
campus IT are short-term full-server backups. What we are looking for is more 
granular, file-level backup over the very long term. Does anyone have any 
recommendations of software or some service or technique? We are looking into 
LOCKSS but haven't dug too deeply yet. Can anyone who uses LOCKSS tell me a bit 
of their experiences with it?
