The Open Planets Foundation and the Digital Preservation Coalition invite you to a hackathon at the DPC offices in York 27th-29th September.
This ‘hackathon’ is designed to bridge the gap between collections owners and developers in the development of practical tools for preservation. It will provide a forum for practical problem solving. It will help collection owners to articulate their requirements in ways that developers can address; and will help developers respond more precisely to the needs of a community hungry for solutions.
This event will interest:
• Collection ownersand managers who can bring along samples of their problematic digital collections. You will be asked to give a short talk to provide an overview of the content and the known or potential issues to the group.
• Developers / technical expertswho want to gain hands-on experience of applying digital preservation techniques to digital collections. You will be asked to give a short talk about your technical experience and interests.
DPC and OPF members are invited to attend free-of-charge, non-members are also welcome at the cost of 200GBP. For more details, including registration see: http://www.dpconline.org/events/details/34-hackathon?xref=33
