Digital Preservation Training and Consulting Services

Ex Libris Inc. and Bibliographical Center for Research (BCR) have signed an agreement to offer libraries, archives, and other information organizations foundation training and consulting services in the rapidly expanding field of digital preservation.

The training will include an overview of digital preservation as well as courses on policy and planning for digital preservation, and risk assessment planning and implementation. These courses, available online and in a classroom format, will provide libraries with a foundation for implementing a digital preservation system such as Ex Libris Rosetta. Supplementary consulting services to meet the specific needs of each organization will be offered as well.
