Archiving and preserving digital content are inherently collaborative and rely on many different partners joining forces to ensure success. This workshop will focus on helping attendees develop and expand collaborative skills that will be useful in engaging with colleagues on digital preservation projects. Using elements of the “Beyond the Repository” digital curation toolkit (created as part of an IMLS grant, LG-70-18-0168-18), the workshop facilitators will guide attendees through interactive scenarios aimed at improving communication and collaboration between various stakeholders. By going through hands-on collaboration exercises from the toolkit, workshop attendees will come away with a better understanding of how to collaborate more effectively in their organizations, and gain ground in long term digital strategy efforts.
