Digital Preservation Network (DPN) Launches Member Content Pilot

Digital Preservation Network (DPN) Launches Member Content Pilot. Carol Minton Morris. Duraspace.org. 2014-10-29. 
DPN has launched a Member Content Pilot program as a step toward establishing an operational, long-term preservation system. The pilot is testing real-world interactions between DPN members through DPN “nodes” that ingest data from DPN members and package it for preservation storage. Chronopolis/Duracloud, The Texas Preservation Node, and the Stanford Digital Repository will be functioning as First Nodes. APTrust and HathiTrust, in addition to the above three, will be providing replication services for the pilot data.
