Programme managers must decide which approach will be most suitable for the materials
being transferred and for the workflows of the parties involved.
It is also most important for preservation programmes to ensure that the materials they keep
can be reliably found, whatever their location. The Universal Resource Locator (URL) used to
identify Web-based resources, for example, does not allow users to find material once it has
been moved. Thus, items can be effectively lost even though it may still exist and be well
protected. Overcoming this problem requires some form of persistent identification, built
around an identifier and a means of resolving or linking to the file in its current location.
There are a number of schemes proposed or in place including the Digital Object Identifier
(DOI) used by publishers, and various schemes being investigated by libraries and archives,
but none has yet found universal acceptance.
