![]() ![]() Findings Digital curation is identified as a mature discipline which is a sub-meta-discipline of information science. Design/methodology/approach Theoretical principles regarding disciplinary development and the identity of information science as a discipline are applied to a case study of the development of digital curation in the UK and the USA to identify the maturity of digital curation and its position in the information science gamut. The purpose of this paper is to trace digital curation’s disciplinary emergence and examine its position within the information sciences domain in terms of theoretical principles, using a case study of developments in the UK and the USA. Purpose Digital curation addresses the technical, administrative and financial ecology required to ensure that digital information remains accessible and usable over the long term. It should stand alongside them and assist them, as well as conduct comparisons and consolidations amongst multiple disciplines regarding information theories, methodologies, practices, by adding new perspectives, resources and developments. It should not compete with or replace other disciplines. It should exist equally with traditional discipline categories such as physical, social science, arts, and humanities. This new discipline should be established as a meta-discipline. The Science of Information will bring together these core information elements in order to correlate, compare and assemble a combined theoretical base. Each existing discipline has within it a significant core Informational Element, which helps formulate and define that discipline. Information is a trigger mechanism, emphasis and nutrient, not only for information activities itself but also all physical, and biological elements, systems and activities. ![]() It is proposed that information is a continuous evolving process, that exists in some simple to complex form in every stage of development, across all scientific and academic domains, as well as being a significant part of everything that exists. It is essential to look beyond the limitations of how humans use and perceive information, or even how other living organisms use information. Therefore, it is also an integral part of all the other individual disciplines and sciences.
