There are still a few places left on the NOF-digi Preservation Workshop, to
be held at the NOF offices at 1 Plough Place, London, on Friday, 15th March.
The workshop will run from 11.30am to 3.30pm.

Workshop Overview
The deployment of a preservation strategy to ensure the long-term
accessibility of digital materials should be an important element of any
NOF-digitise project. Without a suitable preservation plan, projects risk
losing not only the material they have digitised, but wasting the hard work
they have put into these projects.
This half-day workshop will examine the ‘whys’ and ‘hows’ of digital
preservation. The morning session will give an overview of the latest
thinking in preservation, and highlight one case study where one project
almost came to grief because of a lack of a preservation plan. The
afternoon session, which includes a break-out session, will explore the
various pros and cons in different preservation strategies, and finish with
advice on how best to execute these strategies.
