“…Digital preservation research has focused on a few key areas: intellectual property concerns (Charlesworth, 2012; Lor andBritz, 2012); technology obsolescence, including format/software and media/hardware (Caplan, 2007; Guttenbrunner andRauber, 2012); physical threats such as bit rot, human error, and natural events (Weinstein, 1999; Martyniak, 2010); security (Qian, et al, 2011); and description/metadata (Lavoie, 2004; Groenewald andBreytenbach, 2011). Many data preservation issues align with this existing research.…”

Data preservation has gained momentum and visibility in connection with the growth in digital data and data sharing policies. The Dryad Repository, a curated general–purpose repository for preserving and sharing the data underlying scientific publications, has taken steps to develop a preservation policy to ensure the long–term persistence of this archived data. In 2013, a Preservation Working Group, consisting of Dryad staff and national and international experts in data management and preservation, was convened to guide the development of a preservation policy. This paper describes the policy development process, outcomes, and lessons learned in the process. To meet Dryad’s specific needs, Dryad’s preservation policy negotiates between the ideal and the realistic, including complying with broader governing policies, matching current practices, and working within system constraints.
