DPC Reading Club
DPC Reading Club
Need help?
One of the challenges of working in a dynamic and evolving field such as digital preservation is the sheer volume of relevant papers and articles that are published every year. It can be a huge challenge for those of us working in this field to find out about these publications, let alone find the time to read them and absorb the contents.
The DPC Reading Club is here to help you with this challenge! It will not only signpost you to some interesting reading but also provides a place for a friendly chat about the text with other members of the community.
The DPC Reading Club is an informal networking event for DPC Members to share their thoughts and observations on popular and emerging topics in digital preservation.
In our first DPC Reading Club event we will discuss the following article from Thorsten Ries from the University of Texas at Austin in the US. We found this to be a really interesting read and hope you will too.
Thorsten Ries (2022) Digital history and born-digital archives: the importance of forensic methods, Journal of the British Academy, volume 10: https://doi.org/10.5871/jba/010.157
This will be a small and informal event for DPC Members only and places are limited. Sign up now to secure your place! We only ask that you have done the reading that has been set before the event and bring along your thoughts and observations to share.
