Who is the event for?
This is a practical set of events which are designed to privilege operational staff working directly on digital preservation. We are particularly keen for the following groups to attend:
-
Junior staff recently appointed and looking for opportunities to build their professional networks;
-
New entrants to digital preservation seeking to apply professional know-how to this new field;
-
Experienced practitioners who have clear insights into the challenges of digital preservation in their own institutions.
-
Senior staff, researchers and students are also welcome, though it is practical knowledge exchange that will be most prominent.
Priority registration for DPC Members is NOW OPEN!
