Sponsor of the Award for Safeguarding the Digital Legacy, Sonia Ranade of The National Archives (UK) said, “Each of these projects represent important digital collections from all around the world, and I’m delighted to see such exemplary digital preservation work taking place to preserve them for future generations.”

 

The Digital Preservation Awards are a world-wide celebration of significant and state-of-the-art contributions to securing our digital legacy and just one of the ways the Digital Preservation Coalition (DPC) helps to raise awareness of the strategic, cultural, and technological issues which make up the digital preservation challenge.
