CAMiLEON Project

Historical Date: 
1999-2003
Description: 
"Creative Archiving at Michigan and Leeds: Emulating the Old on the New" was a collaboration between the University of Michigan and the University of Leeds, charged with "investigating the viability of emulation as a preservation strategy that maintains the intellectual content, structure, and 'look and feel' of software-dependent complex digital objects." The project's most notable test-case was creating an emulation environment for the British Library's digital copy of the Domesday Book.
