Evolving models of distribution for audio visual collections

Abstract

The selection, integration and management of digital collections will be affected by current changes in the way audio visual content is delivered on the Internet. Describes a technology shift in audio visual content delivery, which pushes content to the “edge” of the Internet, thereby reducing bandwidth loads and improving user experience. Strategies that will allow information professionals to exploit this change are relevant to librarians and archivists who might otherwise opt for a centralized model of content distribution.
