[InetBib] Neue ISO-Norm zum Umgang mit Magnetbändern

[delin@xxxxxx (Delin, Peter)]

Für alle Bibliotheken mit größeren Magnetbandsammlungen (z.B. 
Videokassetten) von Interesse: Die ISO hat am 15.7. eine neue Norm für 
den Umgang mit Magnetbändern verabschiedet
"ISO 18933-2006: Imaging materials- Magnetic tape- Care and handling 
practices for extended usage".
Mitgearbeitet an der Norm haben ausgewiesene internationale Experten auf 
diesem Gebiet wie Jim Wheeler u.a. Die Norm befasst sich mit folgenden 
Problemen (aus der AMIA-L-Liste):

ISO 18933:2006 concerns the care and handling of magnetic recording tape 
during use. It addresses the issues of physical integrity of the medium 
necessary to preserve access to the data (information) recorded on the 
tape. ISO 18933:2006 recommends handling procedures to maximize the 
effective life of magnetic tape.

While some of the recommendations in ISO 18933:2006, such as staff 
training, apply specifically to large-scale or archival usage, the 
basics of all recommendations in this International Standard can and 
should be applied in all circumstances where the desired result is 
long-term usage of the medium whether archival, commercial or personal.

ISO 18933:2006 addresses the following subjects:

handling techniques, including common hazards and methods to mitigate 
those hazards;
handling environments, including pollutants, temperature and humidity, 
lighting, magnetic fields and robotics;
use of tape, including inspection, playback, mounting/loading and 
removing, winding speed, tension and robotic systems;
cleaning and maintenance techniques, including contaminants, cleaning 
methods and frequency;
transportation, both in-house and shipping outside the storage facility;
disasters, including water, fire, construction and post-disaster procedures;
staff training, including schedule for training and contents of the 
training programme;
archival issues.
