Isi artikel

This chapter details how content is ingested, monitored, and restored in the PLN context. These technical steps are critical for processing and preserving the content that institutions submit to a PLN. They are the shared responsibility of the content contributor and the other members of the preservation network that ingest and maintain copies of these collections. These steps are governed either by the PLN staff (e.g., the MetaArchive Cooperative) or by the LOCKSS staff (e.g., ADPNet). The tools that networks use to complete these tasks may differ across different PLN setups. This chapter focuses primarily on the procedures and tools used by the MetaArchive Cooperative in a self-administered network context. All tools described below are freely available open source components that are either standard to the LOCKSS infrastructure or have been built as modules that work in conjunction with the LOCKSS system. This chapter draws heavily upon the work of the MetaArchive Cooperative and includes many recommendations based on our five years of experience running a PLN.
