The British Library is seeking support for a research study on UK Web Archive user needs. Please find the details below:

Introduction 

The UK Web Archive (UKWA) is a collaborative initiative by the UK Legal Deposit Libraries—the British Library, National Library of Scotland, National Library of Wales, Bodleian Libraries, Oxford, Cambridge University Library and the Library of Trinity College Dublin – to collect, preserve, and provide access to UK websites. It ensures that digital content from UK websites is available for long-term historical, cultural, and scholarly research, especially as websites change, disappear, or are no longer maintained. The UK Web Archive is a vital repository of the UK's digital cultural heritage, preserving websites and online content for future generations.

We're pleased to invite the digital preservation community to contribute questions about cybersecurity and digital preservation ahead of an expert panel discussion during the upcoming DPC Members Forum and Networking Event (4 & 5 June) at the KB National Library of the Netherlands in The Hague. 

With just one week remaining until registration closes, we invite DPC Members and digital preservation professionals from across Europe to join us for the DPC Members Forum and Open Networking Event in The Hague on 4-5 June 2025, hosted by KB National Library of the Netherlands!

Whether you're a DPC member or part of the wider digital preservation community, this open networking event offers a unique opportunity to connect, share experiences, and build new partnerships. Registration closes on Wednesday, May 28th.

The call for submissions for the 20th International Digital Curation Conference (IDCC26) is now open. The conference will take place in Zagreb, Croatia between 16-18 February 2026. 

The International Digital Curation Conference (IDCC) is an established annual event with a unique place in the digital curation community, reaching out to individuals, organisations and institutions across all disciplines and domains involved in curating data and providing an opportunity to get together with like-minded data practitioners to discuss policy and practice. The main theme of IDCC26 is AI, austerity, and authoritarianism: contemporary challenges in digital curation.
