The Digital Curation Centre (DCC), Digital Preservation Coalition (DPC) and University of London Computer Centre (ULCC) are collaborating on a new survey to gain an updated view on digital archiving and preservation training needs across professional sectors and countries. Colleagues and/or friends who have an interest in digital archiving and preservation are invited to complete the survey available here until Friday 2 October 2015.

As part of its Portage initiative, CARL announced the launch of DMP Assistant on October 21st. This national, open, bilingual data management planning tool will assist researchers throughout their projects. DMP Assistant was adapted from the (UK) Digital Curation Centre’s DMPOnline tool and is hosted at the University of Alberta.

Our plan for guidance publications 2015-16, responding to feedback we received from a 'quick poll' on topics and formats.
