The Digital Preservation Coalition (DPC) is delighted to invite you to join them at a workshop which will equip collection managers, archivists, librarians and conservators with the skills necessary for ‘Getting Started in Digital Preservation.' This day-long introduction assumes no prior knowledge except a willingness to engage with digital preservation. Through a series of presentations, case studies and exercises, participants will learn how to apply techniques of assessment, risk management and planning to help secure their digital collections.

Workshops will be held on the following dates: John Rylands Library, University of Manchester, 3 May; Information Technologists’ Hall, London, 17 May; and Palace Green Library, University of Durham, 20 July. Registration is free for members of the DPC and £50 for non-members.
