The course sounds very useful, but do you know whether there is any
intention to also run it at a later date as I think it unfortunately
clashes with the RMS conference in Manchester.(23rd-25th April)?

DCC Workshop
Email curation: practical approaches for long-term preservation and
access April 24th-25th, 2006 Grey Street Hotel, Newcastle
http://www.dcc.ac.uk/events/ec-2006/
The Digital Curation Centre is pleased to announce that it will be
delivering a two-day workshop on the long-term curation of emails. This
event will be held in Newcastle on April 24th and 25th, 2006.
The increasing use of email has drastically changed the way that many
organisations work. To provide evidential value and to ensure legal
compliance, it is essential that traditional record-keeping practices
are applied to the management and preservation of emails. This often
requires a cultural change in organisational practices, which can be
exceedingly difficult to implement. In addition, there are a range of
technical issues that can impact the long-term viability and
re-usability of emails. This workshop will investigate some of the
organisational, cultural, and technical issues that must be addressed to
provide accountability in the short term and to ensure that emails can
be located, retrieved, accessed, and re-used over time.
Benefits of Attendance:
The workshop will be of benefit to individuals and institutions that are
interested in applying a records management approach to the long-term
management of their emails. The workshop will also help to illustrate
the potential legal benefits associated with the long-term management
and re-use of emails.
Dates:
This workshop will begin at 13:00 on Monday, April 24th and conclude at
17:00 on Tuesday April 25th, 2006.
Format
The workshop will be delivered over three sessions. The first will
examine the concept of emails as records focusing on cultural and
organizational issues. The second session will review current
applications and practical approaches to preserving emails over time.
The third session will explore some of the issues surrounding use and
re-use of emails. A breakout session on the afternoon of day two will
allow participants the chance to discuss some of the workshop themes in
greater detail and to problem-solve as a group.
Key themes include:
-Classification of emails as records
-Overview of records management processes with regards to the long-term
preservation and accessibility of emails -Overview of email management
and preservation activities being undertaken internationally -Practical
applications of preservation processes -Evidential value and research
benefits associated with archiving emails
