The document discusses a timeline survey conducted by the FIAT/IFTA Media Management Commission to determine what stage member organizations are at in their digital archiving journey. The timeline measures progress in areas like preservation format, content management systems, metadata creation and public access. Survey respondents can see where their organization stands compared to others, and FIAT/IFTA aims to provide relevant information based on responses. The survey had 75 valid responses after eliminating duplicates.
