Arrangement and Description of Electronic Records, Part I and II #1608

On Day One, you are introduced to processing strategies that are applicable to born-digital records, with an emphasis on basic concepts that archivists use to establish descriptive control over digital content. You’ll learn about standards and tools that can be used to implement an integrated processing strategy. You’ll also participate in a set of instructor-led exercises that arrange and describe some electronic records in ways that maintain the integrity and authenticity of the digital records. A laptop is required to participate in this course, and you must have the ability to install and use open-source software on that laptop.
