Subject: [Videolib] More Product, Less Process for AV Collections?
Date: Wed, Aug 1, 2012 1:24 pm


A new white paper from Joshua Ranger of AudioVisual Preservation Solutions 
challenges current thinking on the processing of collections that include 
audiovisual materials. The abstract and link to What’s Your Product? Assessing 
The Suitability Of A More Product, Less Process Methodology For Processing 
Audiovisual Collections can be found below. Enjoy!

The widely referenced and adopted More Product, Less Process methodology (MPLP) 
represents a much needed evolution in the manner of processing archival 
collections in order to overcome backlogs and resource shortfalls that 
institutions face. In the case of audiovisual-based collections, however, the 
ability to plan budgets, timelines, equipment needs, and other preservation 
plans that unequivocally impact access is directly tied to the documentation of 
some degree of item-level knowledge about one’s collection. This paper proposes 
an extension of the MPLP model which is necessitated to properly address the 
particular needs of audiovisual and other complex media in a way that properly 
meets archival standards and that assists the archivist in generating their 
true product: the provision of the three basic services of Findability, Access, 
and Sustainability regardless of the format, the content, or the tools used.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues 
relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, 
preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and 
related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective 
working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication 
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and 
distributors.
