Dear All, 

 

This is just a quick reminder that registration is still open for the 2023 Web Archiving Conference (WAC): Resilience & Renewal’s 3 May Online Day. Registration for the online day closes at the end of April. You can register here: https://netpreserve.org/ga2023/registration/.

 

The Online Day on 3 May will be a mix of pre-recorded presentations (available to registered delegates as of 3 April), and live Q&A sessions during the conference. The Online Day is free to students, IIPC members, and in-person conference attendees, and costs 15 euros for all other attendees. We expect a wonderful program and discussion at the Online Day, which will be similar in format to WAC 2022 and WAC 2021.
