Observations on Preservation and Conservation in this times of socio-economic-political and pandemic crises, stem from many factors, as the increasingly rapid climate change, natural or manmade disasters, effect lives, it also damages Cultural Heritage. Awareness and more education are necessary. We consider the relationships between Open Science and Preservation/Conservation, discovering the best practices for limiting the impact and creating more sustainable registered memories in libraries/archives and cultural institutions.
Programs, detailed action plans, projects, investments concrete possibility of curation over the longest possible time, to guarantee the conditions, both for access and use to physical and digital items. Digitized materials are a growing complex over time, should maintain the level and information quality of the metadata. For some years we have been talking about the need to train many crossing interdisciplinary figures, we need knowledgeable professionals to deal with delicate data, which require accuracy, awareness and subsequent interventions. You must have specific skills to collect and manage dynamic data, changing over time, document the context of these data, integrate the data with different sources, analyze them and preserve. The "data curator" is the interpretation of this figure.
