The New York Public Library’s digital preservation activities
are a shared responsibility among its Information Technology
Group, Digital Experience Group, curatorial areas, and the
Preservation Division. Policies and procedures are developed by
NYPL staff to further the Library's mission and commitment to
the long-term stewardship of its digital assets. Management of
the large content generated through NYPL's participation in the

one of six founding participants in the National Digital

state of New York. NDNP is a collaborative effort funded and
administered by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH)
and the Library of Congress, in partnership with state projects
across the country. The program is preserving and providing
enhanced access to United States
