ALCTS webinar: Personal Digital Archiving
Date: April 24, 2013
All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11am Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1pm Central, and 2pm Eastern time.
Increase your understanding of common digital files – digital photos,
recordings, video, documents, and others – and learn what it takes to
preserve them. Technology changes rapidly. If you don’t actively care
for your digital possessions you may lose access to them as some
technologies become obsolete. Learn about the nature of the problem and
hear about some simple, practical tips and tools to help you preserve
your digital stuff.
ALCTS thanks The MediaPreserve for sponsoring this webinar and
supporting Preservation Week
Learning outcomes:
1. the nature of the problem
2. simple practical tips to describe and save digital files
3. tools that can be used
Who should attend? Anyone with an interest in preserving their own
digital photos, documents, recordings, videos and other digital files.
