It proved to be very successful. The collection is relatively small with only 840 digital files of either jpg, pdf or MS Office format, so there were few complications and I was able to proceed through the Maintenance Plan process steps without any serious holdups. The whole exercise took just over a week with the majority of the time being taken up by the inventory check of the digital files and of about 300 associated physical artefacts. I used the structure of the Maintenance Plan to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwofc.com\/ofc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Use-of-the-Maintenance-Plan-template-for-initial-DP-work-Exemplar-Results-Version.xlsx\">document what I was doing <\/a>and to keep a handle on where I was up to.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of this exercise I\u2019ve now added the following guidance to the beginning of the Maintenance Plan template, and equivalent text to the beginning of the Scoping document template:<\/p>\n<p><em>If this is the first time that Digital Preservation work has been done on a collection <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>EITHER use the Scoping template to get started (best for large, complex collections) <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>OR use this Maintenance Plan template to get started (can be effective for smaller, simpler collections &#8211; retitle it to \u2018Initial Digital Preservation work on the @@@ collection\u2019 and ignore sections Schedule, 3, 4 and 7)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This concludes the interim testing and revision of the Maintenance Plan template.
