About
The Harvard Library Digital Preservation Reading Club is an informal, monthly gathering of colleagues interested in discussing trends and topics relevant to digital preservation. Reading selections are generally brief enough to be casually read, such as scholarly papers, long-form blog posts, or even chapters from publications. Participation is open to the Harvard community, and each month attendees are asked to come prepared for a discussion on that month's reading selection.
