In 2003 Anne R. Kenney and Nancy Y. McGovern published an article titled, “The Five Organizational Stages of Digital Preservation,” in Digital Libraries: A Vision for the Twenty-first Century. In their article they discuss five stages of organizational response to digital preservation:
Acknowledge: Understanding that digital preservation is a local concern
Act: Initiating digital preservation projects
Consolidate: Seguing from projects to programs
Institutionalize: Incorporating the larger environment
Externalize: Embracing inter-institutional collaboration and dependency.
