Library of Congress Aims to Preserve Intellectual Materials Existing in Digital Formats - Scott Carlson, the Chronicle

The Library of Congress will begin a program to preserve intellectual materials that exist in digital formats, library officials announced on Friday. Such materials include music and pictures on CD's, literature and journalism in the form of e-books, and online scholarly publications. The program will find the best strategies for selecting worthy digital work, study the technical and intellectual-property issues involved in preserving it, and begin setting up a preservation system.
