All,


The NDSA Individual Excellence Award honors individuals making significant contributions to the digital preservation community. In 2019, Tessa Walsh was one of two awardees in this category. Tessa has created an evolving suite of robust open source tools meeting many core needs of the stewardship community in appraising, processing, and reporting upon born-digital collections. At the time of the award, her projects included the Brunnhilde<https://github.com/timothyryanwalsh/brunnhilde> characterization tool; BulkReviewer<https://github.com/bulk-reviewer/bulk-reviewer>, for identifying PII and other sensitive information; the METSFlask<https://github.com/timothyryanwalsh/METSFlask> viewer for Archivematica METS files; SCOPE<https://github.com/cca-public/scope>, an access interface for Archivematica dissemination information packages; and CCA Tools<https://github.com/CCA-Public/diskimageprocessor>, for creating submission packages from a variety of folder and disk image sources.

We recently caught up with Tessa to chat about new developments. Read more about Tessa's work in the Excellence Awards blog: Catching up with past NDSA Excellence Awards Winners: Tessa Walsh<https://ndsa.org/2023/10/11/catching-up-with-past-ndsa-excellence-awards-winners-tessa-walsh.html>.
