The International Research on Permanent Authentic Records in Electronic Systems http://www.interpares.org/ (InterPARES) 2 Project: Experiential, Interactive, Dynamic Records http://www.interpares.org/ip2/ip2_index.cfm is an international collaborative project whose major funders are Canada’s Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council’s Major Collaborative Research Initiatives (MCRI) programme, and the National Historical Publications and Records Commission and the National Science Foundation of the United States (see Funding http://www.interpares.org/ip2/ip2_funding.cfm for other sources of funding).
The project aims to develop and articulate the concepts, principles, criteria and methods that can ensure the creation and maintenance of accurate and reliable records and the long-term preservation of authentic records in the context of artistic, scientific and government activities that are conducted using experiential, interactive and dynamic computer technology. Scholars in the arts and sciences, archivists, artists, scientists, industry specialists and government representatives from around the world are working together to undertake the challenge presented by the manipulability and incompatibility of digital systems, technological obsolescence and media fragility and to guarantee that society’s digitally recorded memory will be accessible to future generations.
Stakeholders include:
- Individual records creators, who rely on records for continuing use, reference purposes, cultural purposes, to carry out other activities, as evidence of their work or as proof of individual rights;
- Organizations, who rely on accurate, reliable, and authentic records to carry out their business, fulfill legal obligations, understand previous activities, and ensure continuity;
- Governments, which rely on their records to carry out their mandate, and to be accountable for their actions;
- Archivists and any other professionals whose primary responsibility is to ensure the permanent and authentic preservation of the records of individuals, organizations and governments necessary for the ongoing protection of rights and culture, and for the perpetuation of individual and institutional memory of activities;
- Researchers of all scientific disciplines, who rely on documentary sources to generate new understanding and create new knowledge;
- The citizenry at large, which relies on records to scrutinize the actions of governments to protect its rights, contribute to public debate, develop knowledge and preserve culture; and
- The information technology sector, which must design information systems responsive to the need for accurate, reliable and authentic digital information, in spite of rapid technological evolution.

Objectives:
- To develop an understanding of experiential, interactive and dynamic information systems, of the records produced and maintained within them, and of their present and potential use in artistic, scientific and e-government sectors;
- To formulate methods for ensuring that these records are generated and maintained by the creator in a way that guarantees their accuracy, reliability and authenticity;
- To formulate methods for selecting these records for long-term preservation in a way that guarantees that the authentic records are identified, monitored, and maintained with their identity and integrity intact until they are transferred to the responsibility of the preserver;
- To develop methods and strategies for the long-term preservation of the authenticity of the selected records;
- To identify and/or develop specifications for policy, metadata, and tools appropriate for the design of electronic infrastructures ensuring that these records are created accurate and reliable, and maintained and preserved authentic;
- To develop criteria for evaluating advanced technologies appropriate for implementing the above objectives, in ways that respect cultural diversity and pluralism.
