Assessment of Selected U.S. Digital Image Collections to Digital Public Goods Alliance's Standard

This poster will discuss the researchers' assessment of whether selected U.S. digital image repositories align with the Digital Public Goods (DPGs) Alliance's DPGs Standard. It will share the current progress of this assessment, including their methodology and any results to date, as well as outline some initial considerations for practitioners. This research is unique because it (a) applies the DPGs Alliance's standards to U.S. digital collection image repositories, one distinct subset of the digital repository landscape assessed by the DGPs Alliance, and (b) contributes to the greater scholarly dialogue on digital collection image repositories as a public good.
