The Innovation Working Group has been very active this year. Please see the update on their work below.

Innovation
The NDSA Innovation Working Group is currently working on two broad initiatives. One is focused on identifying and launching challenges to spur innovation in digital preservation. The other involves establishing an ongoing interview series for the Library of Congress digital preservation blog that features conversations focused on fostering dialog about innovative work relevant to digital preservation.
The challenges team is hosting a workshop to develop ideas for challenges at the NDIIPP/NDSA partners meeting. So far, the team has discussed and begun to define a technical challenge around the idea of bit stability. We hope to identify and start working on additional challenges through the workshop which the group could then take up over the course of the year. Along with these challenges we are running an additional workshop focused on identifying a series of annual awards that the innovation group could disseminate to recognize innovative work by both members and non members in the area of digital stewardship. The interviews group has completed and posted one interview to the blog. The action team is currently pursuing three additional interviews with the intention of making this a monthly or bi-monthly feature.


Best regards,

Michelle
