'Critical Cataloguing for Digital Preservation' addresses the stewarding of digital assets within cultural and heritage organisations. Although the technical problems associated with this complex issue have been largely solved, two further difficulties prevent them from being adequately implemented. The first is the limited capacity of a much-pressed sector and the second is the need for increased attentiveness to the social and cultural conditions that arise from the preservation of digital artifacts. This project, drawing on original research and a scoping study of the needs of the market, will provide commercial solutions to both.Specifically, the project will maximise the impact of recently completed AHRC-funded research into justice-oriented cataloguing practices ('Legacies of Catalogue Descriptions and Curatorial Voice: Opportunities for Digital Scholarship', AH/T013036/1 & AH/T013036/2) by embedding research outcomes into the development of a novel commercial activity, the Southampton Digital Preservation Advisory Unit. Once market ready it will offer commercial products - such as expert classes, in-house training, and retained consultancy on digital preservation - that are rooted in critical cataloguing practices to a target market of small- to medium- sized GLAM institutions and community heritage groups.In previous research we have established that Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums (GLAM) professionals were keen to renew, revise, and refresh their approach to metadata production and use. Initial market research has also established that there is a commercial opportunity to offer expert, hands-on, and targeted training, guidance, and support to GLAM institutions and community heritage groups in developing new forms of digital preservation best practice. By combining these two insights this rapid 11-month programme of research commercialisation activity will:- Develop a commercial model for digital preservation training, support, and advice that foregrounds the importance of critical cataloguing practices within the digital preservation lifecycle.- Establish the DigiPres Cohort: a group of individuals from GLAM institutions and community heritage groups seeking digital preservation training, support, and advice, the composition of which is balanced across anticipated markets, collection types, and ED&I considerations.- Stress-test methods for market delivery, pilot commercial channels, and price point tolerances in our target market.- Analyse data on market positioning and on commercial pilots through ongoing market intelligence gathering activities.- Commission a project evaluation report that measures success against objectives, reflects on lessons learned, and supports commercial decision making in the medium to long term.- Report on market need for digital preservation services that foreground critical cataloguing practices and justice-oriented preservation metadata within the digital preservation lifecycle.The project team that will deliver this work comprises researchers, commercial projects officers, and project evaluators, and will be supported by a wider academic environment at the University of Southampton that is ideal for research commercialisation. Partnerships between team members and the target market will be developed through pilot commercialisation activities, site visits, and community engagement. Outputs will include a commercial entity of significant commercial value for non-academic beneficiaries, reports on commercial demand for proposed commercial services, and guidance materials produced for commercial pilots.

“数字保存的关键分类”解决了文化和遗产组织中数字资产的管理。尽管与这个复杂问题相关的技术问题已经在很大程度上得到了解决，但另外两个困难阻止了它们得到充分实施。第一个是受到压痛部门的能力有限，第二个是需要增加对维护数字文物产生的社会和文化条件的注意力。该项目借鉴了原始研究和对市场需求的范围研究，将为两者提供商业解决方案。特别是，该项目将最大程度地提高最近完成的AHRC资助研究对面向正义的目录实践的影响（''目录描述和策展声音：数字奖学金的机会'，AH/T013036/1＆AH/T013036/2）通过将研究成果嵌入新的商业活动，南安普敦数字保护咨询部门的发展中。一旦准备就绪，它将提供商业产品，例如专家课程，内部培训和保留数字保存咨询咨询，它们植根于关键的编目实践，向中小型GLAM机构和社区遗产集团的目标市场提供了关键的编目实践在先前的研究中，我们确定了画廊，图书馆，档案和博物馆（Glam）专业人员渴望更新，修改和刷新他们的元数据生产和使用方法。最初的市场研究还确定，有商业机会可以为华丽的机构和社区遗产团体提供专家，动手和有针对性的培训，指导和支持，以开发新形式的数字保存最佳实践。通过结合这两个见解，这个快速的11个月研究商业化活动计划将： - 开发一种用于数字保护培训，支持和建议的商业模型，以增强数字保存生命周期内关键编目实践的重要性。 ：一群来自华丽机构和社区遗产团体寻求数字保护培训，支持和建议的人，其组成在预期的市场，收集类型和ED＆I的注意事项中都保持平衡。-用于市场交付的压力测试方法通过持续的市场情报收集活动分析渠道和目标市场中的价格公差。-分析有关市场情报收集活动的数据。-委员会一份项目评估报告，该报告衡量了针对目标的成功，反映了经验教训，并支持商业决策制定商业决策 - 关于市场需求的数字保存服务的报告，这些服务在数字保存生命周期内提出了关键的编目实践和面向司法的保存元数据。将提供此工作的项目团队包括研究人员，商业项目官员和项目，评估人员将得到南安普敦大学更广泛的学术环境的支持，这是研究商业化的理想选择。团队成员与目标市场之间的合作伙伴关系将通过试点商业化活动，现场访问和社区参与来建立。产出将包括非学术受益人具有重要商业价值的商业实体，有关拟议商业服务的商业需求的报告以及为商业飞行员生产的指导材料。
