Do you know if the RDA data foundational technology group is addressing any of this? I can find out, but thought you might be directly in the loop.

Please note the arrangements for next Monday's telecon:
2 PM EDT; MONDAY June 17
Details about connecting are in Erin's note that follows.

Suggested Agenda:
20 min - Updates from Previous Telecon (same order and time limit)
30 min - Discussion of Rationale for discussing collection structure
   to move toward answering some questions:

      1.  The OAIS RM (ISO 14721:2012) provides a rather extensive
            discussion of collection structure.  The review I provided in
            Chapter 1 of the book chapters last time did not find as
            extensive a discussion of collections in some of the other
            possible standards to consult (notably FRBR).  Because the
            RM appears to be widely accepted in the archival community,
            it seems sensible to use the RM's structures as a starting point.

            Are there other possibilities?

      2.   The discussions we had of explorations of collection structure
            for the NOAA Emergency Response Imagery collection and
            collections of rock cores showed that current Earth science
            data collections contain hierarchical or layered collections.
            They also showed that Physical Objects in collections may
            have more structure than the RM expected.  These observations
            suggest that we may need to adapt the RM's collection structures
            to adapt it to empirical observations of them.

            Is it reasonable to adapt the RM to what we find - and if so, how
            do we want to record the structures that seem to be needed?

      3.  The RM ties the collection structures to an archive's inventory
           of objects.  As the rationale that's attached suggests, that
           kind of tie may be useful in dealing with audits and forensic
           investigations, as well as using custodianship to quantify
           information about how users actually search for information.

           What do we want to do about the RM's suggested ties between
           collection structure and the archive's inventory structure?  Is there
           a strategy we can come up with to deal with this issue?

10 min - Discussion of strategy for moving forward.  Note the suggestion
            on the second page of the attachment.

Thanks to Erin for the telecon connection instructions.

Erin, can you provide the details of the connection for Monday afternoon?
Even though I messed up connecting with the Preservation Cluster this
week, the telecon is still in the planning spreadsheet.

I'd like to get those out to the participants later today, along with a few
thoughts for them.

Thanks in advance.

Bruce B.
