Apologies for cross postings

Victoria University of Wellington has announced the establishment of a
targeted PhD scholarship in the broad area of digital preservation:

Future Memory at Risk: Digital Preservation and Cultural Heritage

The creation of a national digital memory poses fundamental challenges
for cultural heritage institutions. Our libraries, archives and
museums are searching for new ways to demonstrate their relevance in
the digital world, but they are uncertain of the boundaries of their
responsibilities which were established in a pre-digital age. Our
future access to a trustworthy and meaningful national memory requires
these institutions to identify, preserve and make accessible
significant digital artefacts of
society and also to capture the relationships of these artefacts to
the contexts within which they were created and curated. People,
institutions, places, events, cultural artefacts and resources are all
important constituents.
This project’s purpose is to investigate the varying responsibilities,
as well as the potential contextual frameworks that govern this
community’s diverse constituents. Outcomes will include relevant
strategies for a collaborative digital preservation programme to
provide the foundation for our digital national memory.

The deadline for applications is 15 May, 2009. Further information is
available at
