随着对存档研究数据的公共投资的增长，人们越来越关注管理这些数据的数据储存库的寿命或可持续性。虽然已经制定了许多概念框架和个案报告的个人档案和数字存储库，有很少的实证研究，这些档案如何持续一段时间。在本文中，我们借鉴组织研究的理论，从组织的角度来探讨可持续发展的问题，特别侧重于三个社会科学数据档案（SSDA）的组织历史：ICPSR，UKDA和LIS。使用组织弹性的框架，以了解档案馆如何感知危机，应对危机，并从经验中学习，本文报告了这些长寿的SSDAs的可持续性的实证研究。该研究借鉴了档案文件和访谈，以研究如何可以和应该将可持续性概念化为一段时间内的持续过程，而不是作为一个单一时刻的质量。数据档案可持续性的研究和实践的影响进行了讨论。
As public investment in archiving research data grows, there has been increasing attention to the longevity or sustainability of the data repositories that curate such data. While there have been many conceptual frameworks developed and case reports of individual archives and digital repositories, there have been few empirical studies of how such archives persist over time. In this paper, we draw upon organizational studies theories to approach the issue of sustainability from an organizational perspective, focusing specifically on the organizational histories of three social science data archives (SSDA): ICPSR, UKDA, and LIS. Using a framework of organizational resilience to understand how archives perceive crisis, respond to it, and learn from experience, this article reports on an empirical study of sustainability in these long-lived SSDAs. The study draws from archival documents and interviews to examine how sustainability can and should be conceptualized as on-going processes over time and not as a quality at a single moment. Implications for research and practice in data archive sustainability are discussed.
