With World Digital Preservation Day 2021 (#WDPD2021) on 4th November fast approaching, the Digital Preservation Coalition (DPC) invites all data creators, curators and consumers from around the world to contribute to this global event by breaking down barriers and sharing stories of their own digital preservation day! With the theme 'Breaking Down Barriers,' World Digital Preservation Day 2021 is an opportunity to connect the digital preservation community and celebrate the positive impact digital preservation has had in another year where digital information and infrastructure have been so instrumental in supporting all parts of our global society. "'Breaking Down Barriers' is an opportunity to demonstrate how digital preservation supports digital connections, unlocks potential and creates lasting value," explains Sarah Middleton, DPC Head of Advocacy and Community Engagement. "And because digital preservation is so crucial in supporting these opportunities, it also points to a critical need to make digital preservation and community activities understandable, relatable and accessible to all." Organized by the DPC and supported by digital preservation networks around the globe, World Digital Preservation Day is open to participation across all sectors, from anyone interested in securing our digital legacy.
