Digital Preservation for Digital Collaboratives is a workshop designed to help digital collaboratives with existing digital collections develop and implement a long-term preservation option. The workshop, designed for multiple representatives from a collaborative, will provide the information and tools the collaborative needs to develop a long-term preservation plan that will work for the collaborative’s unique collections and organizations. Each workshop includes an initial day of online instruction followed by 2 days of in-person instruction. Additional support after the workshop will be provided to ensure that all participants are able to complete their preservation plans.



All workshops will be taught by a faculty of digital preservation experts:



Liz Bishoff, Director of Digital & Preservation Services, BCR
