digital preservation

Suppose in a small library setting(school, public or a specialized collection) a new librarian-with a technical services flair finds a vast collection of “CD Rom”, DVD’s/CD’s/other storage devices that have been made over the years.  How does this organization embark on preservation of digital materials.  I’d like to explore this by looking through the literature, find examples of current practice, and share that in a final paper that would include a plan of action for the fictional small library.
