Welcome to the Preservation and Stewardship Cluster

The objective of the new Preservation and Stewardship Cluster is to support the long-term preservation of Earth system science data and information. This Cluster provides a forum for ESIP members to collaborate on data preservation issues.

To join the e-mail list for this cluster, visit | esip-preserve and submit a request to join.

Notes from the Interagency Forum on Data Preservation/LifecCycle/Stewardship, held Jan 8, 2009 at the ESIP Federation Meeting are available [here].

Standards that Support Preservation

Agency Strategies and Policies that Support Preservation

NASA Procedural Requirements (NPR) 1441.1D: NASA Records Retention Schedules (w/Change 4, 1/31/08) [1]

This document covers all types of records managed by NASA. In Chapter 8 (Program Management Records), sections 101-113 (PROGRAM AND PROJECT RECORDS) are of particular interest. Quoted from the document:

"What items 101-113 cover. These items designate appropriate retention of NASA program and project records produced through compliance with NPR 7120.5 or other authorized project management practices. It provides for permanent retention of substantive and historically significant records, and temporary retention of other records until the Agency no longer needs them. The terms "program" and "project" are defined in the current versions of NPD 7120.4 and NPR 7120.5. This schedule applies to all activities performed as part of programs/projects whether designated "tasks," "work packages," or other terminology."

"to preserve and provide access to samples (and any related data) that have been extracted from the Earth to improve the breadth of information that can be used to inform science and decision making now and in the future"
