Hi all, I want to thank everyone who took the digital preservation survey I sent out last spring as part of my sabbatical project. I would also like to thank everyone who took the time to do follow up phone interviews with me. Your cooperation allowed me to collect a large body of useful information about the digital preservation practices at all different types of institutions. I received 148 responses to my survey - 100 of which were complete responses. I promised I would share the results of the survey, so if you are interested, a copy of my sabbatical report is posted on my website: http://works.bepress.com/meghan_banach/7/ Best, Meghan Quoting Meghan Banach Bergin <[log in to unmask]>: > Hi all, > > As part of my sabbatical project I am conducting a survey to > investigate digital preservation efforts at various institutions.
