Two upcoming CLOCKSS webinars will explore the role of repositories in digital preservation, bringing together speakers with expertise in repository infrastructure, policy, and long-term access.
Repositories and Digital Preservation
23 February
Join Dr. Luís Miguel Nunes Corujo (Portugal), co-author of “Preservation and Digital Repositories: Connections, Possibilities, and Needs,” and Dr. Alicia Wise from CLOCKSS for an engaging exploration of how repositories and digital preservation work together to protect our scholarly and cultural record. In this dynamic session, we’ll unpack why preservation and repositories form essential research infrastructure, the often-hidden costs and organizational commitments behind ensuring long-term access, the vital role of digital curation in safeguarding institutional memory and societal heritage, and what it takes to build resilient, future-ready systems in an era of rapid technological change.

The State of Digital Preservation in Repositories: Policies, Practices, and Gaps
24 March
Join José Manuel Barrueco (University of Valencia, Spain), co-author of a comprehensive systematic literature review on digital preservation in institutional repositories, for an in-depth conversation with Dr. Alicia Wise (CLOCKSS). Together, they will unpack what we actually know about preservation policies, strategies, tools, and implementation across global institutional repositories and why so many repositories remain unprepared for long-term stewardship.
