dear all
The next DPC Forum will take place on Tuesday 15 October. Final programme
below.
With the growth of distance learning and an increasing effort to digitise
collections and package them for use in education in school, colleges, and
universities, developing digital respositories and standards for managing
learning objects are growing issues. Our first theme focuses on repositories
and preservation of e-learning and leading initiatives in the field. Our
second theme for the forum is cost models for digital preservation and
speakers from industry and the public sector will address approaches and
aspects of digital preservation costs.
Priority allocation of places is being given to members of the DPC but we
will create a reserve list for non-members to attend at a charge of £150 per
person for any unfilled places. If you have not already done so can you
please let me know asap if you would like to join the reserve list for
non-members to attend the forum. Requests for payment of the non-member
attendance rate will be issued on 27th September and places confirmed on
receipt of payment.
