What is Digital Curation?The active management and
preservation of digital resources over the life-cycle of scholarly, cultural, commercial, and scientific interest, and over time for current and future generations of users.Education can range from raising awareness through a Ph.D.

Need for Digital Curation Education
“Mechanisms are also needed to accelerate the transfer of new knowledge into practical working digital preservation systems to prevent further loss of valuable digital collections.”
-“It’s About Time” NSF/LC Report, 2003 “The new discipline of digital preservation needs
to be supported. This should include the provision of continual professional development for existing individuals with relevant skill sets, e.g., archivists, librarians and IT staff.”
-Waller and Sharpe, “Mind the Gap: Assessing Digital Preservation in the UK,” DPC, 2006

Digital Curation/Preservation Education Standards?I am listed as a “Standards Track” speaker for
this meeting. Hum… what does this mean?Secret – There’s nothing “standard” about
most of higher education!Some professional fields have fairly specified
educational programs, but not Information and Library Science.
Even less standardization for an emerging field like Digital Curation or Digital Preservation.

A Framework for Digital Curation EducationThrough the DigCCurr projects we are building a
framework for Digital Curation/Preservation education.Matrix of Digital Curation Knowledge and
Competencies.High-Level Categories of Digital Curation
Functions.We are providing an environment in which to
capture and education components that populate the framework: Digital Curation Exchangehttp://www.digitalcurationexchange.org

An Ongoing Community ProcessWe are adding initial educational content.Community of educators will hopefully add
additional content.Iterative process as educational content is
constantly evolving.Effort becomes more a clearing house of
ideas rather than static, finished products.Conversations, not textbooks.Framework, not standard.

Build on an installed base.Digital curation activities span entire life of
digital resources.Build from modules, rather than entire
courses.Emphasize core, generalizable modules.Avoid tying the curriculum to one specific
institution typee.g. identifying relatively simple & general set
of lifecycle stages & then identifying detailed set of functions that one may apply at each stage

Tool for thinking about, planning for, identifying & organizing material to cover in curriculum.
Each unit of curriculum content can address one or more dimensions.
Helping us to address a fundamental issue: All digital curation students should all get some aspects of the curriculum, but other aspects will only be necessary for students planning to work in particular types of places or jobs (i.e. balancing core vs. specialized knowledge).

Students should engage in at least two different field experiences.
Field experiences should involve some hands-on work of dealing with digital objects in a way that has actual consequences, rather than just conceptual or policy work.
Importance of partnering with field experience sites that already successfully engage in digital curation, rather than just advising those who don't.

Some (most?) types of digital curation work can require knowledge & experience before students enter the curriculum, including:Domain expertise - e.g. research experience in
physics, in order to work with physics dataIT expertise
