It was an absolute pleasure to be at the opening of Staffordshire History Centre yesterday. Great to see the new public spaces and have a sneaky look around the strong room.

The National Archives has been commissioned by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport to create the Government's new strategic vision for the archives sector.

I did a presentation for CAHG Scotland yesterday. Talking about what digital preservation is and introducing the 'Just One Thing' resource from the Digital Preservation Community Archives Toolkit. You can see the resource here, www.dpconline.org/docman/digit...
