Abstract

There are multiple risks posed to the longevity of digital materials and the risk analysis method presented here provides a simple but effective way to assess the current state of your digital collections.This semi-quantitative risk analysis was developed at the British Library (BL) and its application to the BL digital collections is used as a case study.
