Data Analysis Part Three: Electronic Records Plan

The electronic records plan, building on the recommendations in the Needs Assessment and the requirements in the Preservation Guidelines, is intended to guide the development of your digital preservation program over the course of three years.  The plan includes clearly defined strategies and objectives to build the technological and administrative structures necessary to support digital preservation.   While certain objectives/strategies need to be completed sequentially other elements of the plan can be rearranged to accommodate your circumstances.  There is a similar flexibility in extending the timeframe of the plan should you need more than the recommended three years.  However, consider the speed of technological change when extending the timeline.
