Panel: Born Digital Collecting in Aotearoa
Channel: NDF - National Digital Forum
Date: 2018-11-29

Galleries, libraries, archives and museums have different collecting missions and mandates, but increasingly they are all dealing with complex digital objects. These objects are often created as part of a networked environment, dependent on specific operating systems, software or hardware, and responsive to user input as part of how they are experienced. Panellists from a range of GLAM institutions will discuss the challenges and opportunities of collecting, preserving and providing access to born digital objects and the experiences they create. As well as technical challenges, the panel will consider legal and ethical issues and how institutions need to work with the artists and communities that create content

Panel Lead: Amy Joseph, National Library of New Zealand, Legal Deposit Librarian

Jay Gattuso, National Library of New Zealand , Digital Preservation Analyst
Fiona Moorhead, Te Papa , Collections Information System Manager
