NONCONFIDENTIAL // EXTERNAL
Good morning,
Registration for
Digital Preservation 2018 is now open!! Once again, Digital Preservation is being hosted in conjunction with the DLF Forum.
Our program committee is hard at work reviewing proposals, and it’s shaping up to be another great Digital Preservation conference. This year our conference theme
is “In/visible Work” and we are absolutely thrilled to have Snowden Becker deliver the keynote,
“To See Ourselves as Others See Us: On Archives, Visibility, and Value.” If you’d like a sneak peak of what’s in store for the rest of the program, head on over to the
community voting app and help us shape the best program by casting your vote.
In addition, we’re also working hard to improve the experience, inclusivity, and networking for our conference attendees! This year the digipres planning committee
is piloting a brand new NDSA mentorship program, based on the successful DLF Forum Mentors. For more information on the Mentorship program:

We hope to see you there!

You’ll join guests like
Anasuya Sengupta, our Forum keynote speaker, who will present her talk, “Decolonizing Knowledge, Decolonizing the Internet: an agenda for collective action.” Stay for DigiPres and hear
Snowden Becker deliver her keynote, “To See Ourselves as Others See Us: On Archives, Visibility, and Value.”
Our full program will be released in the coming weeks, but to get a taste of what will be on the docket, check out our
community voting on the proposals that were submitted - and while you’re there, help form the program by submitting a vote or two! Program planning committees for each event will use the community’s input, in combination with results from a concurrent peer
review process, to inform its decisions about the conference programs.
Registration is not yet open for Learn@DLF, which takes place on the pre-conference day, October 14! Let us know on the registration form if you’d like more information, and we’ll be sure to email you when it is possible to register.
It’s never too early.
