Call for Contributions to:
                        *****        PREMIS Implementation Fair Workshop   ******
                                   Thursday 5 September 2013, Lisbon, Portugal

As part of iPRES2013, the PREMIS Editorial Committee is holding the latest in a series of Implementation Fair Workshops.  It is intended to give implementers of the PREMIS Data Dictionary for Preservation Metadata an opportunity to discuss topics of common interest and find out about the latest developments of the standard and of projects using PREMIS.  See:
http://ipres2013.ist.utl.pt/ws2-ipres2013-premis-workshop-proposal.pdf
The draft workshop agenda is below.

The PREMIS Editorial Committee is seeking contributions to the workshop from PREMIS implementers.  We are looking for speakers who would like to present on a topic or project.  If you have implemented PREMIS recently, have changed the way you use PREMIS, or are doing something novel or innovative with it, we would like to hear from you; please reply to this email by the end of Monday 22 July.

Thank you,
Pauline Sinclair

Draft Agenda
============
Part 1: A View from the Editorial Committee
13:30-13:45        Introduction
A brief introduction to the workshop.

13:45-14:00: Update on PREMIS activities.
A brief overview of PREMIS activities since the last PREMIS Implementation Fair in Oct. 2012 will be given, including changes to the Data Dictionary as part of the development of PREMIS version 3.0.

14:00-14:45: Changes in the PREMIS Data Model.
The next major version of the PREMIS Data Dictionary will be released by the end of the year 2013; an update on the main evolutions of the PREMIS Data Model and Data Dictionary will be given. Notably, the revised data model will consider Intellectual Entities differently. Additionally, this new version provides a better way to describe Environments separately from Objects and allow software and hardware registries to be linked to. This modeling work, and the new features that it allows, will be described.

14:45-15:05: Changes for Preservation Policy Metadata.
The new version of PREMIS also allows the preservation policy applied to preserved digital objects to be recorded in more detail by updating the preservationLevel semantic container.

15:05-15:35 PREMIS OWL ontology.
A revised version of the OWL ontology is to be published in Spring 2013, and all the PREMIS controlled vocabularies will be published at the same time. The ontology allows users to express PREMIS using RDF, and to work easily with Linked Open Data, at a time when those technologies are being used more and more in registries (e.g. UDFR, PRONOM). Along with the existing PREMIS XML schema, this provides an alternate PREMIS endorsed serialization format, and can be leveraged to address problems of distributed preservation metadata across several preservation repositories or format registries and allow PREMIS metadata to be queried easily.

15:35-16:05 Break

Part 2: A View from the Field
16:05-16:25 Preservation Health Check Report.
The Open Planets Foundation and OCLC Research are conducting a pilot that runs through 2013-2014. The activity involves the National Library of France as a pilot site that provides the preservation metadata from their operational repository and deposit systems. The project consists of a quality analysis of the real-life preservation metadata (METS/PREMIS) used by the pilot site, and intends to demonstrate the value of preservation metadata in mitigating risks by aligning the PREMIS Data Dictionary to risk factors. An update will be givenon the current state of the project with particular emphasis on the initial outcomes.

16:25-18:30 Implementations.
Specific PREMIS implementations will be reviewed and specific issues encountered by implementers will be discussed.


We are looking for contributions from implementers. If you would like to present on a topic or project, please reply to this email.
