Capture analog and tape based video recordings as digital files at high-to-maximum capture specification levels for long term preservation generally when items are at risk for loss of information |
This file is placed in a managed storage environment and retained for the long term. This file satisfies both long term preservation needs and researcher requests for high quality files. Because of the high capture specifications, this file could confidently take the place of the original record if the original record is damaged, destroyed or not retained. This file can produce other files including broadcast quality files, reproduction masters and distribution copies. |

Capture analog and tape-based video recordings as digital file and/or create derivatives from preservation master files at minimum capture specification levels to improve access or minimize risk due to high use. The item is not at risk due to deterioration or obsolescence. |
This file is placed in a managed storage environment and retained for the long term if it is serving a preservation purpose or a specific researcher need. If the file can be regenerated from a preservation master with minimum effort, it is usually not managed and retained. This file satisfies most researcher requests as well as limited preservation risks including loss, theft, and vandalism. Because the capture/transfer specifications do not meet preservation level I, this file would not be an optimal substitute for the original record if the original record is damaged, destroyed or not retained. This file can be generated from a preservation master or be the highest quality file created in a project. This file can make other files including distribution copies. |
Reproduction Master:

Transcode digital moving image recordings from preservation or reproduction masters for specific distribution purposes where small file sizes and fast transfer rates are important |
This file is retained only as long as needed to satisfy a specific distribution need. It is not actively managed over a long term. Distribution copy formats are not a direct capture option from analog originals. This file is always a derivative or a duplicate of a preservation or reproduction master file. Other files would not be generated from this file. This file is not intended to substitute for the original record if the original record is damaged, destroyed or not retained. This file is not a preservation copy. |
Distribution Copies:
If product category is needed, choose one or more as appropriate to suite project needs. |
