This work aims to describe, through an experience report, the preparation process of the Digital Preservation Plan of VideoSaúde – Distribuidora (VSD), a service linked to the Institute of Scientifi and Technological Communication and Information in Health (Icict), technical-scientifi unit of the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (Fiocruz). Result of a set of preservation actions developed by Fiocruz, the Digital Preservation Plan aims to contemplate VSD digital audiovisual assets, outlining a management and preservation strategy to be implemented in the short term. The chosen strategy sought to be guided by solid digital preservation guidelines, especially the OAIS standard, through the adoption of Archivematica, an open source digital repository. The structure developed for the plan was based on reference models and attempted to address the main needs of VSD, so that its audiovisual collection can be properly preserved and accessible for future generations.
