Erin,

I and probably a number of other folks in the National Park Service
would love to attend and/or present at Digital Preservation 2013. However,
Servicewide travel restrictions prevent most of us from attending. I shared
your message with an NPS listserv in hopes that some colleagues near the
D.C. area may be able to attend.

Cheers,

Chris Dietrich, MS, PMP

*Conservation means development as much as it does protection. I recognize
the right and duty of this generation to develop and use the natural
resources of our land; but I do not recognize the right to waste them, or
to rob, by wasteful use, the generations that come after us.* — Theodore
Roosevelt
