Abstract
The MetaArchive Cooperative is the oldest continuously functioning digital preservation network and community. The Cooperative has succeeded because the network and its organizational members have continued to evolve since inception over fifteen years ago.
The Cooperative has made proactive adjustments to its community model, technical interoperability, and the ways it engages with the broader distributed digital preservation field in an intentional effort to remain relevant, useful, and impactful.
The Cooperative will share the impact of its Changing for Continued Impact series, which has resulted in newly established Membership Levels, allowing a broader range of organizations and individuals to participate in the Cooperative. This process also yielded new technical approaches and renewed membership engagement. This presentation will give the digital preservation community its first look at the Cooperative’s new and future directions.
