Digital curation

Digital curation is the selection,[1] preservation, maintenance, collection, and archiving of digital assets.[2][3][4][5] Digital curation establishes, maintains, and adds value to repositories of digital data for present and future use.[4] This is often accomplished by archivists, librarians, scientists, historians, and scholars.[6] Enterprises are starting to use digital curation to improve the quality of information and data within their operational and strategic processes.[7] Successful digital curation will mitigate digital obsolescence, keeping the information accessible to users indefinitely.[8] Digital curation includes digital asset management, data curation, digital preservation, and electronic records management.[9]
