Case Study: University of East London enhances access to community heritage collections with Arkivum

University of East London expands digital archiving over 2 years with Arkivum

The University of East London (UEL) had a challenge in ensuring the long-term preservation and accessibility of its valuable digital collections, which had expanded from research data to include important community heritage materials like oral histories. Their archivist needed a robust solution to safeguard these records, leading them to partner with vendor Arkivum and utilize its digital archiving service.

By implementing the Arkivum solution, the university gained greater control, flexibility, and accessibility in managing its archived data. The results included the successful scaling of their digital archiving efforts to accommodate a much larger volume of collections. Arkivum provided the foundational guarantee of secure storage and data integrity, which was key to evolving UEL's entire digital preservation strategy.
