Council on Library and Information Resources

The Digital Library Federation Assessment Interest Group will create the Digital Content Reuse Assessment Framework Toolkit (D-CRAFT), which will contain resources, recommended practices, and use cases for sustainably measuring and evaluating the reuse of digital assets held by cultural heritage knowledge organizations. The creation of D-CRAFT will allow cultural heritage and knowledge organizations to better understand the ways users engage with, reuse, and transform digital content. It will standardize approaches and recommended practices for assessing and communicating the economic, educational, scholarly, scientific, social, and cultural value and impact of digital collections. Ultimately, D-CRAFT will support the use of evidence-based approaches to build and improve on inclusive, user-centered platforms, systems, and collections.
