  • The Flashback Project: Rescuing Disk-Based Content from the 1980S to the Current Day
    IDCC16 | Research Paper The Flashback Project: rescuing disk-based content from the 1980s to the current day. Maureen Pennock Peter May Michael Day The British Library The British Library The British Library Kevin Davies Simon Whibley The British Library The British Library Akiko Kimura Edith Halvarsson The British Library The British Library Abstract This paper introduces the British Library’s Flashback project, a proof-of-concept that explored the practical challenges of preserving digital content stored on physical media (magnetic and optical disks) using a sample of content from hybrid collection items dating from between 1980 and 2010. It describes some of the activities undertaken by the project, including: the initial collection profiling and sampling of content, the extraction of content from the disks, and the project team’s experiments with identifying and applying preservation approaches to the content, which included both emulation and migration. It concludes with some general observations on the approaches taken and looks forward to the second phase of the project. Introduction The British Library is the UK’s national deposit centre for published content. Its collections are vast and comprise everything from books and journals, to maps, newspapers, electoral registers, and patent specifications, in both hard-copy and electronic form. It also contains one of the largest collections of recorded sound in the world. The Library’s digital preservation team has been working on strategies to preserve the digital elements of the collections since around 2005. Recently, attention has turned to digital content acquired before this date, content that is typically still stored on its acquisition media, with examples in the Library’s collections dating back to the 1980s.

DESCRIPTORS *Computer Assisted Instruction; Computer Networks; Computer Software Selection; Computer System Design; *Curriculum Development; Educational Needs; Foreign Countries; *Instructional Design; *Interdisciplinary Approach; Microcomputers; Secondary Education; *Urban Education IDENTIFIERS British National Curriculum; *United Kingdom ABSTRACT The program for City Technical Colleges (CTCs) draws on ideas and resources from government, private industry, and education to focus on the educational needs of inner city and urban children. Mathematics, science, and technology are at the center of the CTCs' mission, in a context which includes economic awareness and a commitment to enterprise and wealth creation. This discussion addresses the question of computer provision in the context of the need for children to learn skills in the technologies now central to their existence, and their need for sufficient access to relevant equipment through their learning experiences at school if they are to develop such skills. This paper presents a rationale for providing information technology (IT); a discussion of how subject areas in the National Curriculum, ranging from science to dance, can be enhanced by its use; suggestions for staffing and administering IT programs; and a discussion of issues concerned with system purchase, support, and maintenance.
