Aligning National Approaches to Digital
Preservation II -
I'm very pleased to be able to share the announcement for this
second conference on Aligning National Approaches to Digital
Preservation (and also to have the opportunity to speak at it). I hope
that many interested readers of this list have had the opportunity to
look at the proceedings book from the wonderful earlier conference
that was held in Estonia in 2011 (this is available free for download
at the educopia.org web site); I am hopeful that using this as a point
of departure, it should be possible to make a great deal of progress
at the Barcelona meeting.

Aligning National Approaches to Digital Preservation II: An
Action Assembly
Dates: November 18-20, 2013
Location: Biblioteca de Catalunya (Barcelona)
We are pleased to announce the "Aligning National Approaches to
Digital Preservation II" Action Assembly. This event will assemble
digital preservation leaders from a variety of backgrounds (including
national libraries, academic libraries and archives, research centres,
public libraries, information science/management programs, archives,
corporations, and funding agencies) to carry out international
alignment activities to support the preservation of our collective
digital memory.
This Action Assembly will build upon the successes of the 2011
ANADP Conference in Estonia, in which more than 120 delegates from 24
nations established targeted alignment channels for their future
efforts. These alignment channels were documented in the conference
volume, Aligning National Approaches to Digital Preservation
(Educopia, 2012), this year's winner of the Society of American
Archivists (SAA) Preservation Publication award. The first major
action outcomes-an international tools/services registry, a
framework for applying OAIS to Distributed Digital Preservation
methodologies, a catalogue of education and training opportunities,
and quantitative data gathering around digital preservation
costs-will be delivered to the community at ANADP II this Fall.
ANADP II will be a highly participatory event in which
stakeholders will engage in facilitated discussions and action
sessions to produce a set of concrete outcomes for the extended
digital preservation community in three areas: Community Alignment,
Resource Alignment, and Capacity Alignment.
