Description
Summary:In 2017, the Minneapolis Institute of Art (Mia) joined the National Digital Stewardship Residency for Art Information (NDSR Art) inaugural cohort, hosting a project focused on preservation and stewardship of Mia’s time-based media art, part of the museum’s permanent collections and distinct from its library and archival materials. Post-residency, Mia’s resident and project team members from the museum’s Library & Archives and Collections Information Management departments revisited the project, considering the overlaps and divergences between museum, library, and archival approaches to digital preservation and stewardship. Each offered a unique perspective and reflections on their professional practices.
