Program:  Are you responsible for record integrity for the long term?  Do format questions loom large in your thinking?  Do you know or care what a dark archives is?  Are you depending on your information technology shop to migrate your data?  Have you budgeted for the preservation of your long term/permanent records?  Do you want to learn more about these questions?   As a profession, we moved from focusing on electronic records management to information governance and now to digital preservation:  the management of digital information for long-term accessibility.   We must begin preparations now to ensure the long term/permanent retention of electronic records with continued value to our organizations.   This presentation explores the dimensions of the digital preservation challenge and the resources available to assist you with preparing a strategy for this change.
