Long-Lived Digital Data Collections Enabling Research and Education in the 21st Century

From the National Science Board, published in 2005.

The introductions always say the same thing, so I am skipping them for the most part. Other than an introduction that repeats everything that we already know, there are four more chapters, including: elements of the digital data collections universe, roles and responsibilities of individuals and institutions (including a blurb on the data quality act), perspectives on digital data collections policy, and findings and recommendations.
