The best planning team will draw from many perspectives, backgrounds and experiences -- and of course we'll need to hear from both newcomers and DigiPres veterans to put together the most engaging program. So, I hope to hear from you soon! Please find the details below, or feel free to reach out to me with any thoughts or questions. Best, -Aaron On behalf of the DigiPres 2018 Planning Committee From: Collie, William A Sent: Friday, January 12, 2018 2:22 PM To: [log in to unmask] <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Call for Participation: DigiPres 2018 Planning Committee NONCONFIDENTIAL // EXTERNAL Hello, The National Digital Stewardship Alliance<http://ndsa.org/> calls for volunteers from NDSA member organizations<http://ndsa.diglib.org/members-list/> to join the Planning Committee for Digital Preservation 2018.<http://ndsa.org/meetings/> Digital Preservation is the NDSA's major meeting and conference-open to members and non-members alike-focusing on digital stewardship and preservation, data curation, and related issues. This year it will take place October 17th & 18th at the M Resort, just outside Las Vegas, Nevada, after the DLF Forum<https://forum2018.diglib.org>. Logistical arrangements will be handled by the Digital Library Federation, so that this committee can focus more fully on the program for #digipres18<https://twitter.com/search?f=tweets&q=%23digipres18&src=typd>. Duties involve defining the vision for the event, drafting and circulating a CFP, coordinating the review and selection of proposals, crafting and publicizing the schedule, and collaborating with the DLF Forum planning committee to make this conference partnership a success. We anticipate monthly group calls and regular email exchanges February-October. This is an opportunity to help shape a crucial venue for intellectual exchange, community-building, development of best practices, and national-level agenda-setting in the field of digital preservation-as well as to set the tone and direction for future NDSA events. Join us! Volunteers from NDSA member organizations<http://ndsa.diglib.org/members-list/> are asked to complete this form<https://goo.gl/forms/F7zSTp86jl12MTaz1> by Monday, February 5. Please share this opportunity widely. -Aaron ######################################################################## to manage your NDSA-ALL subscription, visit ndsa.org/ndsa-all
