Member preview of new DPC Technology Watch Guidance Note: A case study on understanding user needs
Added on 14 October 2022
The Digital Preservation Coalition (DPC) has released a Member Preview of a new Technology Watch Guidance Note on Understanding user needs: A case study from the National Library of Scotland by Chris Fleet today.
Access is an important element of digital preservation workflows and ultimately information is preserved so it can be used: so, understanding what users need is a key aspect of successful digital preservation. This case study is a real-world example of how this has been done at one institution, with constraints of time, expertise and resource. It demonstrates how a rich seam of information on user needs can be gathered through a variety of interactions with users and how this can help inform future activities and decision making.
