Dear all,
Booking is now open for the British Museum's 2018 National Programmes Conference, Museums and digital memory: from creation and curation to digital preservation.
Taking place at the BM on 3 September 2018, the conference will focus on the theme of 'digital' with an emphasis on preservation. The day will explore both the exciting outward-facing side of digital technology in museums, and the back-of-house side that can often get overlooked - if we're memory institutions, how are we ensuring that we retain all the digital memory that we're creating?
Tickets are free, but must be reserved online via Eventbrite<https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/museums-and-digital-memory-from-creation-and-curation-to-digital-preservation-registration-46857948385>. A limited number of travel bursaries are also available for delegates for whom travel costs would be prohibitive.
Please do circulate to anyone you think might be interested - this event is open to anyone working in or with UK museums, as well as representatives of sector bodies, academics and early-career scholars, people working in the creative and digital industries with a relevance to the museum sector, and others working in these fields including digital preservation specialists and practitioners.
We hope to see you there!
All the best,
Georgia
