The Art Institute of Chicago takes steps to preserve its history and records
To preserve its corporate records and institutional knowledge, The Art Institute of Chicago has implemented a cloud-hosted active digital preservation platform. The museum chose a solution from Preservica, which helps organizations protect critical, long-term digital information.
The Art Institute, which has nearly 300,000 works in its permanent collection and 1.5 million visitors each year, has a large volume of records that are increasingly digital in origin. They include the minutes and decision-making of the board of trustees; information on the museum’s exhibitions, donations, gifts and artwork acquisitions; and annual reports and financial statements.
