Digisam is a part of Sweden's national strategy for digitization, digital access, and digital preservation of cultural heritage established in 2011. Its main tasks are to coordinate digital information management across collections, develop proposals for long-term digital preservation, and define roles and responsibilities for aggregating, accessing, and preserving digital cultural heritage. Digisam works with 24 central agencies and institutions to help them develop digitization plans and increase the amount of digitized material available within their existing budgets, with the overall goals of creating scalable solutions, building infrastructure, and empowering users.

This document summarizes the work of Digisam, a Swedish coordination secretariat for digital preservation. Digisam aims to 1) make recommendations for coordinated management of digital collections, 2) develop proposals for long-term digital preservation, and 3) define roles for aggregating, accessing, and preserving digital cultural heritage. It notes different types of digital information held by archives, libraries, and museums in Sweden and the need for common best practices and standards. A pilot study examined current digital preservation practices and identified a need for a common solution to manage all processes, given the large volumes of digital cultural heritage and lack of efficient long-term preservation currently.

The document discusses models for national collaboration on coordinating the digital cultural heritage in Sweden. It describes how the Swedish government oversees cultural agencies and institutions through annual directives and evaluations. There are 24 agencies responsible for collecting, preserving, digitizing and disseminating cultural heritage materials across archives, libraries and museums. In 2009, the government initiated a process to develop a national digitization strategy. This led to the establishment of DIGISAM in 2011 to coordinate efforts and make recommendations across agencies. DIGISAM's role is to help produce scalable solutions and define responsibilities to improve access to and preservation of Sweden's digital cultural heritage.

Leif-Jöran Olsson "Dramawebben, The Swedish Drama Web" KB 9 oktober 2015 Digisam
This document summarizes the Dramawebben project, which created a corpus of Swedish drama texts annotated using TEI guidelines. It discusses the goals of engaging the humanities community and students in TEI encoding. Examples are provided of semantic annotations added, such as occupations and weaving, and automatic visualizations created, including character networks. Training materials and evaluation resources created through the project are also mentioned.
The document summarizes Sweden's national strategy for digitization of cultural heritage established in 2011. The strategy aims to coordinate efforts across 24 agencies and institutions to select, digitize, preserve and provide access to cultural heritage collections. It also establishes Digisam to coordinate this work and develop recommendations for aggregation, access, preservation and cost-effective solutions. Digisam will work with other organizations to develop semantic interoperability and infrastructure to make heritage collections more discoverable, linked and available for public use and research.
Digisam is a department at the Swedish National Archives that coordinates the digitization of Sweden's cultural heritage according to the national strategy set in 2011. The strategy aims to regulate agencies' and institutions' work in collecting, preserving, and providing access to cultural heritage information. Digisam's main tasks are to coordinate digital information management between agencies, develop proposals for long-term digital preservation, and define roles for aggregating, accessing, and preserving digital cultural heritage. It works with 24 agencies responsible for different aspects of cultural heritage.

The document summarizes Sweden's national coordination of digitizing cultural heritage from 2012-2015. It establishes DIGISAM to coordinate activities according to the national digital strategy. DIGISAM aims to increase accessibility of archives, libraries, and museums' collections through digitization and digital preservation. It will develop recommendations to produce scalable and cost-effective solutions for the long-term management of 24 government agencies' digital cultural heritage collections and information. Key issues include taking a cross-domain approach using common standards while prioritizing usability, access, and coordinated preservation.

1. Digisams uppdrag –
ett stöd för den humanistiska
forskningens infrastruktur?
Rolf Källman
2012-02-02
Digisam - Samordningssekretariatet för digitalisering, digitalt bevarande och
digital förmedling av kulturarvet
2. En nationell strategi för digitalisering av
kulturarvet
• I december 2011 fattade regeringen beslut om en nationell strategi för
arbetet med att digitalisera, digitalt bevara och digitalt tillgängliggöra
kulturarvsmaterial och kulturarvsinformation.
• Strategin omfattar digitalisering, bevarande och användning.
• Alla statliga institutioner som samlar, bevarar och tillgängliggör
kulturarvsmaterial och kulturarvsinformation ska ta fram en plan för
digitalisering och tillgänglighet. Målen ska nås inom fastställda
ekonomiska ramar.
3. Digisams uppdrag är att:
• stå för kompetensuppbyggnad och för kunskapsinhämtning inom sektorn i
frågor om digitalisering, digitalt bevarande och digital förmedling
• bidra till, samt i vissa avseenden samordna för att målen för den nationella
digitaliseringsstrategin ska nås.
• rapport med ett ställningstagande om sekretariatets fortsatta verksamhet
efter 2015
4. • Presentera allmänna råd för digitalisering och tillgängliggörande avseende:
– Prioriteringar
– Gemensamma format
– Öppna och gemensamma standarder
– Definitioner
– Användbarhet och tillgänglighet
• Ta fram förslag om nationella riktlinjer för:
– Samordnad digital informationshantering
– Samordnat och kostnadseffektivt bevarande
– Roll och ansvarsföredelning avseende aggregering, tillgängliggörande
och bevarande inom den statliga sekorn
5. Digisams fokus:
• Den digitala kedjan
• Informationsflöden och aggregering
• Ansvars- och rollfördelning
6. Vad vet vi om vad forskarsamhället
behöver?
I hög utsträckning samma behov som flertalet andra
användargrupper som t.ex:
– Digital infrastruktur
– Gemensamma standarder och format
– Kvalitetssäkrade källor
Specifikt:
– Datauttag, ofta stora och oredigerade direkt från databaserna
7. DC-NET: Digital Cultural Heritage
Network
• DC-NET är ett EU-finansierat projekt, s k ERA-NET (Coordination action
contributing to the European Research Area Network).
• Projektet är sektorsövergripande och syftar till att främja den digitala
infrastrukturen för att underlätta tillgången till forskningsinformation i digital
form från kulturarvssektorn.

11. En utbyggd och fungerande digital
infrastruktur innebär att forskarna:
• kan lägga mindre tid på sökningar och sammanställningar
• får mer tid för kvalitativ forskning
• kan formulera nya frågeställningar –data mining
• ökade möjligheter samverkan
• lättare kan överbrygga ämnesgränser och geografiska avstånd
12. Om data som…
forskare producerar ska kunna
ingå i en gemensam infrastruktur
är informationen är tillgänglig för
användning och återanvändning…
förutsätter det användande av
gemensamma format, standarder mm…
