COPTR describes tools useful for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_preservation preserving digital information for the long term]. COPTR is also an initiative to collate the knowledge of the digital preservation community on preservation tools in one place. Instead of organisations [http://wiki.opf-labs.org/display/SPR/Digital+Preservation+Tools competing against each other with their own registries], COPTR is bringing them together. In doing so it's objective is to provide the best resource for practitioners on digital preservation tools.

Welcome to the Community-Owned digital Preservation Tool Registry (COPTR)

The Community-Owned digital Preservation Tool Registry (COPTR) is a place to find tools to try, and workflows to learn from, to help you take care of your digital collections. It describes 624 tools and 36 workflows. The COPTR Tools Grid (below) allows you to quickly find tools by the specific content types or functions they address.

Contribute Your Experiences

To be useful, COPTR needs your help to update existing records as tools change, or to reflect your experiences using the tools. We also need new records for any new or missing tools you think are useful and we'd love to host more digital preservation workflows so we can learn more how these tools are used in context. You can find out more about how you can get involved here.
