We’re delighted to share that Preserve Together has been awarded a contract to support the British Library in the procurement & rollout of a new digital repository system. This project is an important step in ensuring their digital collections are preserved, secure, & accessible for the long term.

This #WorldMentalHealthDay I celebrate the amazing preservation community. Nothing inspires me or gives me energy like spending time with other digital preservationists. As you can see I was "pure buzzin'" last week when I got to spend time with one of my favourite #digipres peeps, Micky Lindlar!

Preserve Together is delighted to launch our new training courses “Understanding File Formats for Digital Preservation” and “Developing Digital Preservation Strategy”. To find out more, visit the Courses page our website: www.preservetogether.com/courses

There's a new post on the Preserve Together Blog! In "Thinking About Feedback", Sharon discusses the importance of feedback, how it can help with digital preservation, and deciding when you should (and also when you shouldn't) listen. #digipres

We're thrilled to share that we're launching our first training courses next week! They'll be:

We're pleased to announce the launch our blog! In the latest post, we discuss realism in relation to our digital preservation strategy, goals, and practice: www.preservetogether.com/blog/dp-real...

We're excited to share that we've just started our first major consultancy contract. 🎉 We're working on a project to optimize the content ingest and egress processes for a major preservation service.

We're pleased to share that on 23 July, Sharon will join @aranewprofs.bsky.social for a session reflecting on 2 decades in #digipres. Aimed a new entrants to info professions, the free event will cover lessons she's learned, resources she'd recommend & future trends.

Want to get to know our team a little better? Check out this interview with our Consultancy Lead, Paul Wheatley, as he talks about the early days of #digipres, his career, and his not at all secret love of the avian world. bit.ly/4jvf8kJ

We've been doing a lot of reading lately, & we thought we'd share some of our favs as our #DigiPres Resource of the Week.

This week we're recommending Sibyl Schaefer's paper from iPRES 24, "Energy, Digital Preservation, & the Climate: Proactively Planning for an Uncertain Future".

We're underway with training development at Preserve Together & have a long "wish list" of courses to create, but what would you like to see? What #digipres training do you wish existed? What new skills would you like to build, or which existing ones would you like to develop further? 🤔

Sharon McMeekin and Paul Wheatley are excited to announce the launch of their new training and consultancy firm, Preserve Together. Offering a range of services to help build your capacity and skills, we aim to support individuals and organizations in achieving their digital preservation goals [1/4]
