Hi All, Apologies for any cross posting but I wanted to share a new interest group focused on all aspects of email archiving and preservation. About the group The Email Interest Group evolved from an existing working group, formed to design a shared ePADD Discovery <https://epadd.stanford.edu/epadd/collections> website. After completing that work, we decided to continue meeting, to discuss issues and take on new projects related to aspects of email archiving and preservation more broadly. We aim to create an approachable, welcoming, and collaborative space to discuss email archiving. *Pardon any cross posting* *Email Interest Group* This email is an invitation to join a new interest group focused on all aspects of email archiving and preservation.
