In early 2018, the NDSA sent out a call to the larger digital preservation community asking for interest in updating the Levels of Preservation.\u00a0 Response was high \u2013 125 individuals responded from across North America and beyond! NDSA then convened the Levels of Preservation Working group, which divided up into subgroups to tackle the many areas the community wanted to see addressed in a Levels Reboot. These subgroups included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Revisions: charged with updating the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Levels Matrix (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/osf.io\/2mkwx\/\" target=\"_blank\">Levels Matrix<\/a>, including the normalization of language across the functional areas and levels.<\/li><li>Implementation: surveyed the community to see how the Levels had been used in the past and what people did and did not liked about its structure and content. \u00a0This information (<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"survey results at NDSA's OSF site (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/osf.io\/ythqn\/\" target=\"_blank\">survey results at NDSA&#8217;s OSF site<\/a>) was one of the sources used to assist with the revisions.\u00a0 This subgroup collaborated with the Revisions subgroup on an implementation guide <em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Using the Levels of Digital Preservation: an overview for V2.0 (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/osf.io\/nt8u9\/\" target=\"_blank\">Using the Levels of Digital Preservation: an overview for V2.0<\/a>.<\/em><\/li><li>Assessment: explored how the Levels had been used to assess digital preservation efforts (<a href=\"https:\/\/osf.io\/47kqm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"report at NDSA's OSF site (opens in a new tab)\">report at NDSA&#8217;s OSF site<\/a>), and have developed an <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Assessment Tool (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/osf.io\/m2fek\/\" target=\"_blank\">Assessment Tool<\/a> based on the updated Levels Matrix.\u00a0 <\/li><li>Curatorial: charged with identifying and crafting the basis of a series of discussion and decision points around how collections materials can be mapped to the Levels and other elements within an organizations\u2019 preservation strategy.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The next steps will be to create a subgroup to address the development of strategy and additional materials to support the Levels of Digital Preservation v2.0 educational and advocacy efforts.
