Session Description:

You’ve spent time and energy to digitize your museum’s holdings, and having a digital preservation policy and plan is paramount to ensuring your efforts are not lost. What can be done though, when you are facing limited time and resources? This workshop, offered by the Canadian Heritage Information Network (CHIN) is geared to providing digital preservation solutions to small museums and similar sized cultural heritage institutions. We will weigh the pros and cons of various solutions suitable to small museums, and consider appropriate hardware, software, and processes suitable for digital preservation in your museum. If your museum will soon be digitizing content or has already done so, but faces limited resources and knowledge of digital preservation, this workshop is for you.
