Successfully promoting the curation and preservation of information to a range of stakeholder communities depends on a high level of community awareness regarding the breadth of current research activity and a shared commitment to collaborate on the development of tools, resources and best practices, both within the UK and internationally. The DCC is very well placed to serve as a central focal point for both encouraging collaboration and distributing information between related international curation and preservation initiatives.
One way that we can help to raise awareness of current research and development activity is through the delivery of a series of curation and preservation seminars. The aim of the series is not to share general project overviews, but rather to disseminate specific research results and to demonstrate tools and resources developed by individual projects and initiatives. These events will be practical in nature so that participants get some tangible guidance, information, and access to tools that they can use in their own institutions.
All our seminars will be recorded and made available for download. The seminars will help build a central repository of current digital curation and preservation research activity. We encourage seminar speakers and viewers make use of our DCC Forum as a means of communicating questions and to share experiences.
In the first instance, the seminar series will work with some of the JISC 4/04 projects:
