The DPC is delighted to share its new prospectus for the coming year. The program contains a range of new and returning publications, webinars, specialist briefing days, as well as other activities on a range of priority topics within digital preservation.

The activities respond to real and current issues experienced by the digital preservation community, and aim provide the information and skills to respond positively and effectively.

"The great strength of the Coalition is its breadth, diversity and the support network it offers for members around the world, so we look forward to drawing from the Coalition's experiences and expertise to help address evolving issues through the exciting activities we have planned for the next 12 months," says Head of Communications and Advocacy for the DPC, Sarah Middleton.

Responding directly to the call for greater advocacy support, 2018-2019 sees the return of a training event on the subject. While a working party of members will develop a new advocacy resource with the support of UNESCO and the PERSIST project; the Executive Guide on Digital Preservation is due for completion and launch in January 2019.

The program retains the ever-popular 'Getting Started with ...' and 'Making Progress with Digital Preservation' roadshows, with a European stop planned within the 12 months. And this year the student conference 'What I Wish I Knew Before I Started' will also take to the road, with plans to call at three locations in the UK and Ireland. The DPC will hold three more 'Digital

Preservationists Anonymous' workshops and plans to reach members outside the UK would see sessions attached to international conferences.
Highlights of the year include the bi-ennial Digital Preservation Awards which will culminate in a spectacular awards ceremony in Amsterdam on World Digital Preservation Day, Thursday 29th November 2018.

DPC members receive free-of-charge priority access to events and publications.
