DCC Information Day: University of Leeds
Overview
This event investigated the challenges of digital curation faced by multimedia and scientific research projects. The varied presentations encouraged challenges and solutions to be shared across disciplines. Attendees not only gained greater knowledge of the different tools and resources available through the DCC, they also benefited from contact with others locally and nationally involved with digital curation.
This was a free event — and included tea, coffee and lunch — but was by invitation only, so if you were interested in attending then you had to register quickly before it was too late.
