1. Section: General approach to digital Long-Term Preservation (dLTP)
The first section will introduce the subject of the seminar. It is intended to illustrate the importance of dLTP in general and give an overview of the heterogeneous requirements of different user communities like (digital) libraries, archives, data-centres, digital repositories, science communities etc. Selected national and international activities and projects will be presented.

2. Section: Technical aspects
The third section adds a more technical point of view. The importance of metadata especially those serving the dLTP process will be discussed. What metadata standards, if any, exist and can be recommended? Is there a common approach possible to serve the various communities like life sciences, natural sciences, social sciences, Humanities, etc. One talk should treat data formats, their role in a dLTP context and possible evaluation criteria. Assuring the long term accessibility by using persistent identifiers will be addressed with respect to the results of the eScience seminar held on this subject in March 2008.

3. Section: Organisational aspects
The second section copes with matters concerning institutional and management requirements of dLTP. Which criteria does an archive/repository have to fulfill to be considered trustworthy? How important are standards, especially those that come from GRID and eScience technics? What roles can be ascribed to institutions involved in the lifecycle and dLTP of data? Who can be considered responsible for data federation and curation and its future access? Furthermore the topic of cost of dLTP will be treated in this section.

4. Section: Current practices
This section will overview the best practices in use. The current state of the Bitstream-Preservation approach of GWDG/RZG will be one of the subjects here. Another topic will be the integration of dLTP in a GRID environment. Existing archiving systems and tools will be presented and discussed. Some MPIs will give an insight into their current practice.

5. Section: Future perspective for dLTP in the MPG, final discussion
This last section will offer a look into the future of dLTP, its role in cultural heritage, and building and dissemination of scientific knowledge. A perspecitve of necessary future developments and funding will be given. In this section the final report with recommendations concerning support and development of dLTP activities in the MPG will be outlined.
