WPWVC-ACRL Hosts Digital Preservation Webinar at Pitt and Clarion

The transition from print to digital has changed the way our libraries and archives share and preserve information and it also affects our personal collections.  Do you have a plan for saving your digital photos, videos or documents?

The Western Pennsylvania West Virginia Chapter of the Association of College & Research Libraries (WPWVC ACRL) Program Committee invites you to attend the Association for Library Collections & Technical Services (ALCTS) Preservation Week webinar, Digital Preservation for Individuals and Small Groups, on Thursday, April 30, at 2:00 p.m.

The webinar will be hosted by the chapter at four locations, two in Pennsylvania and two in West Virginia:

• Carlson Library, Clarion University, Clarion, PA
• University of Pittsburgh Library Resource Facility, Pittsburgh, PA
• West Virginia University Downtown Campus Library, Morgantown, WV
• Marshall Graduate College, South Charleston, WV

A preservation specialist will be available at the viewing sites to facilitate discussion and answer questions.

These sessions are open to WPWVC ACRL members and non-members. There is no charge to attend, as the webinar is sponsored by ALCTS and Gaylord Archival.

Please RSVP by April 28 using the registration form found here: http://tinyurl.com/wpwvcspring15webinar.
