Australian Data Archive Preservation Plan
The plan covers data and metadata managed by ADA for digital preservation and reuse, based on the Open Archival Information System (OAIS) Reference Model PDF. The plan outlines the scope, objectives, responsibilities, and actions for preserving data deposited with ADA. It does not cover administrative data or other data related to the function of ADA.
Scope
ADA holds over 6000 datasets from more than 1600 datasets and 13,000 datafiles through 1833 until the present day, available for reuse through the ADA Dataverse platform. Most data are focussed within the social sciences as quantitative survey data, but ADA has a small qualitative collection from an ARDC project collaboration to develop support for archiving of qualitative data. Ongoing preservation [1] is provided by the Archive for all data that is deemed suitable once approved at each step of the archival work flow [2], beginning with the deposit appraisal process [3].

Objectives
To ensure ADA, depositors, and the Designated Community understand and follow preservation Actions <link to heading below> under this plan: - Processes to manage file and metadata formats sufficient for long term storage, preservation, and accessibility. - Measures to address preservation levels and threat of obsolescence. - Documentation to support activities undertaken by the ADA workflow to ensure preservation. - Management of deaccessioned data.
Responsibilities
ADA has been responsible for providing archival and preservation support since 1981 [4] growing from the needs of its Designated Community. ADA continues to keep pace with, and meet changes within the technical and user landscape, supported by ADA’s active participation in the technical and archival community, and within the Designated Community through external engagement [5], memberships, and projects [6]. ADA supports the FAIR(Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Re-Usable) principles, and is actively working towards the support of CARE Principles for Indigenous Data Governance (Collective Benefit, Authority to Control, Responsibility, and Ethics) **** where are we referring to our project work towards CARE – GE Data Project (FNP), ALC Mukurtu Project, IDI FNP Catalogue Project.
