A project management approach to long-term preservation of optical media tasks

Optical media used in common practice are rarely suitable for long-term preservation (LTP) tasks, they are more a mean of transmission of records between the producer of records and the organisation/archive (any archive in broader sense). Migration is a LTP method which can be used after the act of receiving records, but its dynamics may vary and it can be implemented as a routine process or through project management approach. The author investigates migration process in Croatian National Competent Authority on the example of medicinal products records on CDs and DVDs. Studied projects belong to the same organisation and domain of records. The author investigates complexity of project management approach to migration of optical media and concludes with recommendations on setting up such projects.
