The Sustainability Test: A Self-Assessment Tool for Evaluating Digital Sustainability
“This tool can be used anytime you need to pause and reassess your digital sustainability. It can be used before you start planning a project, after you complete a project, before submitting a request for funding, or at any other key moment.
This survey should be used by organizations managing digital collections with the goal of ensuring this content is available over the long-term. This assessment can be completed by one person, but preferably by a small team. The results can be used by your team to help you plan your next steps, to communicate needs to your leadership or other influencing decisionmakers, to set annual priorities, to choose a project to work on, to plan a project, or to create a funding request, and more.” (p.7)
