Online class on digital stewardship

Basic Digital Stewardship Online Class for Gulf Coast Academic
    Libraries

Basic Digital Stewardship (Live Online)
April 12, 2007
10am - 12pm EST
Free

In an effort to promote disaster preparedness and recovery near the
gulf coast, SOLINET is offering a series of free Preservation
classes from Spring to Fall 2007 as a part of its participation in
the Gulf Coast Academic Library Recovery Project (Mellon). Some
classes will be held face-to-face and some will be web-based.
Additional classes will be announced periodically as scheduled.

Is your institution thinking about embarking on a digital project?
Have you already begun, but want to make sure that you are prepared
to handle the long-term preservation needs that are specific to the
digital world? This class will cover appropriate file formats,
migration and refreshing, and a discussion of the Research Libraries
Group (RLG) checklist to be certified as a trusted digital
repository
