The Born-Digital Tracking log is meant to track the lifecycle of born-digital collection materials as they under go specific preservation processes. The born-digital collection materials tracked in the log are data captured or migrated from legacy media and/or networked storage outside of Harvard's stewardship (Google Drive, email account). The specific preservation processes the Tracking log aims to monitor are:
- data capture or migration from one type of media to another
- verification for integrity and authenticity
- identification of sensitive data or personally identifiable information
Examples of born-digital materials that are NOT tracked in this log are: web archives, collections-related data, Harvard Library Bulletin archival assets.
Please track all born-digital collection collections in the form of media and/or networked data (other than web archives).
