Description (en)
In this paper we present a case study and selected results
from a research on digital preservation amongst digital
libraries in Europe. We propose a framework for gap
analysis in digital preservation encompassing the
diffusion of preservation practices and the life-cycle of
data. We also present a Gap Analysis Tool that we
developed to support visual analysis of gaps in the
implementation of digital preservation amongst
communities. We discuss selected results from the
application of the tool in the community of libraries in
Europe.
