Collaborative Electronic Records Project (CERP)  
Project Description
The Smithsonian Institution Archives (SIA) and the Rockefeller Archive Center (RAC) were engaged in a collaborative three-year project to develop, test, and share the technology to preserve digital documents with other non-profit organizations. SIA and RAC developed and tested electronic records preservation, focusing on email, that drew on the SIA’s more established framework for developing methodologies, and that drew on the RAC’s network of donor institutions for testing the preservation system and strategies.
