I’ll presenting “Convert it to preserve it: Digitization and file conversion”, one of the webinars for the Connection to Collections series Caring for Digital Materials: Preventing a Digital Dark Age.
The webinar takes place on Thursday, April 4, 2013, 2:00 – 3:30 pm EDT. It will cover the key points about creating digital files that will be useful for a long time to come, with a focus on the core formats in use across libraries, archives, and museums: text, images, and audio. The webinar will also touch on video, moving images, data, and interactive systems, but mostly to make sure participants are clued into the risks and state of development for these types of collections.
