Guidelines for the constitution and management of the archive
MATERIAL TYPOLOGIES The museum collects an unlimited number of digital or digitised projects, fully described and documented, each provided with a catalogue record and a critical paper.
MODALITIES OF DIGITISATION If the donated project is not originally in digital format, the committee, in consultation with the artist, will arrange for its digitisation in accordance with national and international standards.
DONATION The artists undertake to donate the project, revised and reconstructed in digital format specifically for the museum, through a private deed in which the donor clearly expresses his or her intentions regarding the terms of use of the artwork.
PRESERVATION In addition to maintaining the museum website, the museum aims to preserve multiple backup copies of the projects and their related documentation offline, in addition to any further backups provided by the service provider. Every document is archived on the MoRE website, developed using Omeka, and in its digital repository within the DSpace platform provided by the University of Parma.
