Our Digital Records Unit is launching two new digital preservation tools this summer. These guidance and capacity planning tools have been specifically developed for Scottish local authorities. They are the product of a 12 month project and will assist local authority archivists and record managers get started with digital preservation.
The guidance tool will help local authorities to understand and implement the steps needed to ensure that digital records are captured and preserved within the archive, while the capacity tool enables users to calculate their digital storage needs.
The events are aimed towards those currently working within Scottish local authorities, however other interested parties are also very welcome to attend.
The tools will be launched in Glasgow City Chambers on July 10th (book here) and in Aberdeen Town Hall on August 8th (book here).
Tickets are selling fast so be sure to register soon if you would like to attend, and spread the word to anyone who might be interested.
You can follow the events on Twitter, using the hashtag #scotladp and we’ll be livetweeting from @natrecordsscot.
We look forward to seeing you in Glasgow or Aberdeen!
