We encourage anyone working at a museum, library, historical society, or other cultural heritage/arts organization to attend and learn more about the MDPN’s community-centered approach to digital preservation.

Regardless of type or size, many cultural heritage institutions struggle to provide the resources necessary to ensure long term access to their digital content. This is particularly true for mid-sized and small organizations that digitized collections for “preservation purposes,” not fully appreciating that the resulting files also required preservation. Although there are many excellent educational opportunities to develop knowledge and skills, right-sizing or repurposing the content learned at a workshop for the local environment can be challenging. This presentation seeks to provide tips for assessing your institutional landscape and strategizing the consensus building necessary to sustain digital preservation practice.
