COPPUL is pleased to announce that the winner of its 2010 Outstanding Contribution Award is Mark Jordan, Head of Library Systems, Simon Fraser University.
Mark is being recognized for his many contributions to the COPPUL Private LOCKSS Network (PLN) where played a key role in identifying and resolving technical challenges that had to be overcome to ensure the successful implementation of the network.
The PLN is a project that utilizes the LOCKSS digital preservation system as a means to archive collections of local significance to members of COPPUL that are not being preserved through any other means. There are only a handful of Private LOCKSS Networks currently in production and the COPPUL PLN is the first such initiative in Canada.
Congratulations to Mark!
A press release about the award can be found on the COPPUL website.
