Hello, The National Digital Stewardship Alliance<http://ndsa.org/> calls for volunteers to join the Planning Committee for Digital Preservation 2019<https://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 16th & 17th, 2019, at the Tampa Waterside Marriott in Tampa, Florida, just after the DLF Forum<https://www.diglib.org/dlf-events/>. Logistical arrangements will be handled by the Digital Library Federation so that this committee can focus more fully on the program for #digipres19<https://twitter.com/search?f=tweets&q=%23digipres19&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, serving as session moderator if possible, assisting with social events and/or mentorship opportunities, 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 are asked to complete this form<https://goo.gl/forms/dghnMLo02fhZSl6a2> by Friday, January 11. Please share this opportunity widely, and thank you!
