RESOURCE: National Digital Stewardship Alliance Glossary

Checksum? Bagger? Ingest?

The National Digital Stewardship Alliance has released a glossary of digital stewardship terms.

NDSA members have been working on a “Levels of Digital Preservation” activity to provide basic digital preservation guidance on how an organization should prioritize its resource allocation. This glossary provides a common language for NDSA members to communicate about the levels work and should also be useful as a general digital stewardship glossary.
