[MCN-L] Digital Preservation

[Matt Wheeler]

Good day--we're beginning to research an approach to archiving our digital
assets. Currently, everything is stored onsite on redundant servers, but we
have no system of checksum encoding or fixity checking. The software
solutions I've investigated are all open source and therefore require
significant investment in development. The content volume-based pricing of
professional digital archives seems to be outside our budget (we're pushing
8TB of digitized heritage materials).
Does anyone know of a dependable out-of-the-box application for content
authentication, preferably Windows-based? Thanks.

[MCN-L] Digital Preservation

[Megan H McGovern]

At the iPres conference last year, there were two out-of-the-box digital 
preservation vendors on site.  One was Tessella, whose product is called 
Preservica.  The other was Ex Libris, promoting Rosetta.

Best,
Megan

[MCN-L] BI/Data visualization

[Jonathan Benoit]

Hello,

I'm curious if any other museum or libraries are using Business 
intelligence/Data Visualization within the organization. If so, what are the 
applications and what are you looking to better understanding?

I've played around with Tableau on our CMS and I can see some immediate 
applications for measuring success, as we track objects that have been used to 
teach and the faculty departments we serve. It's a nice way to visualize 
subject terms, object classification makeup, etc.

Really just curious how many of you are being asked to provide this type of 
visual information to upper management.

Thanks
