Hi CWG,

 

At our next NDSA CWG call on Wednesday, April 6 at 11 a.m. ET we will welcome Jules Bergis from UC Riverside and the Documenting the Now project and Sara Day Thompson from the DPC who recently published a report on preserving social media. To make the most of our short time with these presenters, please let us know by responding to this email or on the NDSA wiki if there are specific questions you have about the Documenting the Now project or the DPC report.

 

On the wiki you can also see notes/outcomes from our March meeting (via our calendar), also provided in this message below for convenience.
