Welcome to DAVA, the Digital Audiovisual Archiving Blog!

Hello, and welcome to DAVA, the Digital Audiovisual Archiving blog. It's intended to be a locus of information for topics related to the transformation and preservation of audiovisual material. Sample topics include encoding, storage, metadata, provenance, rights, automation, and restoration. While this blog will focus mainly on audiovisual media items, many of the topics will have application to digital library objects in general.

This blog is administered by Media Matters, a digital archiving consultancy based in New York.
