repositories have as part of their
mission/mandate to serve the general public. In
other words, the repository must disseminate any
information that the Consumer is allowed to
access without violating any restrictions on the
release of the requested information. Some
repositories have raised concerns about the
tension between their requirements to serve the
general public and the OAIS requirement to serve
the repository’s Designated Community(ies).<span> </span></p>

designating these two different classes of
Consumers do have some overlap, but they also
have some substantive differences. Indicating
that a repository serves the general public
means that anyone (with a few exceptions) can be
a Consumer of the OAIS’ information. Indicating
that a repository serves a particular Designated
Community(ies) means that the members of the
Designated Community may access any information
the OAIS holds subject to any restrictions on
the release of the data. NOTE: The OAIS
Reference Model, and this standard, do not
require repositories to limit their Consumers to
members of their Designated Communities.<span> </span></p>

Communities serve a distinct purpose related to
the Long Term Preservation of the information
held by the repository. Long Term Preservation
is, “[t]he act of maintaining information,
Independently Understandable by a Designated
Community, and with evidence supporting its
Authenticity, over the Long Term.” One of the
mandatory responsibilities of an OAIS is to
ensure that the information it holds is
Independently Understandable by the Designated
Community. The OAIS must periodically assess
whether or not the information held for a
specific Designated Community is still
Independently Understandable by that Designated
Community using their current Knowledge Base. If
it is not, the OAIS must add additional
Representation Information or PDI to make it so.
If a repository collects information across many
topics/domains, it may need to have multiple
Designated Communities for the different
topics/domains.<span> </span></p>

Reference Model, and this standard, an OAIS does
not have to ensure that its holdings are
Independently Understandable to any Consumer
outside its Designated Community(ies), though it
may choose to try. In practical terms ensuring
its holdings are and remain Independently
Understandable to the general public would be a
nearly impossible task. Consider, for example,
maintaining enough Representation Information
and PDI to make Einstein’s Theory of General
Relativity Independently Understandable to a
6-year-old who reads only Korean. While many
repositories will say they serve the general
public, there are usually unwritten limits to
the types of services the repository provides.
By contrast, an OAIS must ensure that the
information it provides remains Independently
Understandable to the relevant Designated
Community through time.</p>
