1 A Model for Managing Digital Pictures of the National Archives of Iran Based on the Open Archival Information System Reference Model Saeed Rezaei Sharifabadi, Mansour Tajdaran and Zohreh Rasouli Alzahra University Abstract The present research is to represent a model for managing digital pictures of National Archives of Iran, based on the Open Archival Information System reference model (OAIS). The research is quantitative and uses the library method. Descriptive and analytic survey is also used for data analysis. The data are gathered through a researcher made checklist. The statistic population involves 32 persons, expert at digital preservation field and familiar with OAIS reference model, among whom only 20 persons accepted to complete the checklist. Regarding experts viewpoint, 89 elements from the total 135 elements available at audit list, have been represented for the suggested model of managing digital pictures of National Archives of Iran. Digital pictures are important records, which have a considerable role on the meeting of users information needs. Since there has been done no research at the field of managing digital pictures of National Archives of Iran, based on OAIS reference model so far; this research is to represent a desirable model for managing digital pictures of National Archives of Iran through developing a check list based on OAIS reference model. Authors Saeed Rezaei Sharifabadi received his Ph.D. degree in Library and Information Science from the University of New South Wales (Australia) in 1996 and is currently an Associate Professor and the Dean of Faculty of Education and Psychology at Alzahra University (Iran). He has served as the Editor-in-Chief of Ganjine_ye Asnad (a historical research and archival studies quarterly) since Dr. Rezaei is also former Deputy National Archivist of Iran and a former member of the Iranian National Committee of the Memory of the World Program. He has been part of the InterPARES Project during his sabbatical leave at the University of British Columbia in His publications/research deal mainly with IT Applications in Libraries and Archives, srezaei@alzahra.ac.ir. Mansour Tajdaran is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Library and Information Science at Alzahra University, tajdaranmansour@yahoo.com Zohreh Rasouli holds an M.A. in Library and Information Science from Alzahra University, rasoulizohreh@yahoo.com 1. Introduction Today, many information centres have digitized their resources. With the development of technology, various formats developed for old software and hardware are replaced with the new ones. All these cause a big challenge for the long-term access to the content of digital resources. Therefore, applying the digital life cycle, which is responsible for the preservation and long-term access, is considerably important.
2 Many national libraries and archives have benefited from the OAIS reference model for designing and constructing their digital archives. Currently, this reference model is a well-known standard in the field of digital preservation that has been approved by ISO in The OAIS has created a general model or framework for the construction and maintenance of an information warehouse for the long term preservation and access to digital materials (Samiee, et al. 2011, p. 165). 2. Research Questions The present research is an attempt to answer the following research questions regarding the experts viewpoints: 1. What are the most important components of each functional entity of the OAIS reference for managing the digital pictures of the National Archives of Iran? These functional entities include: Ingest Archival Storage Data Management Administration Preservation Planning Access 3. Review of the Related Literature The review of the related literature, which includes the previous studies conducted inside and outside Iran, are further discussed in detail. Samiee (2010), in her PhD dissertation entitled an Examination of the digital preservation posture of the resources of national libraries members of the Internet Preservation International Consortium and representing a suggested model for the National Library and Archives of Iran, studied and analyzed the OAIS reference model as the only digital preservation standard in digital repositories and suggested the implementation of this standard for digital libraries software. Beedhamet al. (2004) in research entitled assessment of Ukda and Tena conformity rate to METS (Metadata Encoding and Transmission Standard) and OAIS reference model, examined six main entities of the OAIS reference model and METS and then explained about their functions in digital archives such as Tena and Ukda. Semple (2004) in Developing strategies for Digital preservation in Edinburg Academic Library, studied the general view toward developing a preliminary project of digital preservation at Edinburg University, the integrity of METS, the OAIS reference model and development of digital preservation operations in a digital materials system in Edinburg Academic Library. Anderson et al. (2006) in a research titled as an archival study of digital photos, described digital photos features, preservation strategies, metadata available for digital photos, and a digital photos life cycle for the OAIS reference model and trusted digital repositories (T.D.R.). 2
3 Nordland (2007) in his PhD dissertation, titled International Development and Research Center (IDRC) as a case study for long term preservation strategy, has considered challenges for archivists and records managers in the long-term preservation management of digital records. This dissertation has studied IDRC as a prominent instance in different areas of digital long-term preservation such as digital preservation standards and strategies, permanent digital repository, web archiving and the like. The results of this research have contributed to the OAIS reference model for maintenance and preservation of information resources in archives. The reviewed studies indicate that the OAIS reference model is a formal standard at digital preservation area and using it at digital repositories will contribute to the integral management of existing digital resources, saving cost and time for setting up digitizing systems and easy sharing of and access to information. This research aims at suggesting a framework and model for managing digital pictures of the National Archives of Iran, based on this model (OAIS). 4. Research Methodology Regarding the content of this research, it is a survey study (descriptive and analytic). First, the OAIS reference model was studied in order to determine the prominent activities at main functional entities of the reference model, including: ingest, archival storage, data management, administration, preservation planning and access. The final entity is common services, which underlies all the others, and includes operating system services, network services and security services. After determining these activities for data gathering, a list of 135 closed questions, based on the Likert scale (5 options), - was designed which included the 6 main entities: ingest (23 questions), archival storage (21 questions), data management (21 questions), administration (28 questions), preservation planning (25 questions) and access (16 questions). A content validity method has been used to assess the researcher-made assessment list validity. After preparing the checklist, experts in the archival field and members of the scientific board were asked to assess its validity, and then the suggested revisions were made. Cronbach s alpha coefficient was used for the assessment of the checklist reliability of this research; which was then separated into the 6 main entities of the OAIS model. Table 1: Cronbach Alfa quantities, separated into 6 main entities of OAIS model Number OAIS reference model entities Cronbakh Alfa 1 Ingest Archival storage Data management Administration Preservation planning Access.718 As we can see in the above table, each main functional entity of the model is higher than.7. This shows that the checklist stability is favourable. 3
4 5. Data analysis After gathering the existing data at the researcher made checklist, these data were analyzed through descriptive statistics (including cumulative frequency per cent, average, and standard deviation) and SPSS software. The results are represented at the following tables. 5.1 The most important elements at OAIS reference model Ingest entity Before Ingest of the data, a data transmission contract (negotiation with works authors about dedication agreements) will be concluded and then the activities of this entity are accomplished, including: obtaining the Submission Information Package (SIP), quality guarantee of SIPs, production of an Archival Information Package (AIP), the extraction of descriptive information from the Archival Information Package, and coordinate updating. Among 23 prominent elements of the Ingest entity of the OAIS reference model, 14 elements with the averages of 5, 4.5 and 4 and with a cumulative frequency per cent higher than 80, were identified as the most important prominent elements, which are represented in table 2.

Conclusion About pictures have been digitized thus far at the National Archives of Iran. The National Archives of Iran needs strategies for digital preservation in order to supply future generations with access to this digital heritage. Since the reference model is responsible for long term access to digital resources and has been used for the long term preservation by many national libraries and archives, a checklist was designed based on 6 main entities of this model in the present research including 135 closed questions based on a Likert scale (5 optional) which were given to experts in order to determine the importance rate of each element. Finally, 98 important elements were identified, from among which 14 elements are related to the Ingest entity (table 2), 11 elements to the Storage entity (table 3), 16 elements to the Data Management entity (table 4), 23 elements to the Administration entity (table 5), 14 elements to the Preservation Planning entity (table 6), and 11 elements are related to the Access entity (table 7).
