SUGAR

The Sustainability Guidelines for Australian Repositories (SUGAR) offer advice through links to recommended information sources. Topics include digital project planning, costs, digital conversion standards, copyright and searching.

The project was completed at the end of 2006. SUGAR is not currently being maintained and no new links have been added since September 2006. For more information, contact Rowan Brownlee.

Is SUGAR for me?

Digital sustainability is all about taking precautions to ensure that content (e.g. images, sounds, video, text) remains accessible for as long as needed.

Do you have a collection of images or sounds that you want to use on a computer?
Are you sure of the legal issues?
Are you concerned about who will care for your collection in the longterm?

SUGAR can help.
