Crissandra George writes: “Historically, digital library research has had a large focus on enhancing access to digital collections, but only recently has the long-term sustainability of digital preservation been making headlines. These subfields have largely coexisted for a long time, which has created confusion around what these subfields do and how they differ. Digital collections and digital preservation, while similar, also have many differences in everyday practice. Both fields strive for long-term, sustainable, and reliable access to digital objects, making it difficult to discern between the two at times.”
