SCAPE Project Training Event: Keeping Control – Scalable Preservation Environments for Identification and Characterisation

Link: 
SCAPE Events webpage

One of the biggest initial challenges to digital preservation is file format identification. While there has been a lot of work in this area, the ever changing nature of digital formats realistically means the problem will never be “solved”. This first SCAPE training course will give you the knowledge and experience to confidently choose file formation identification and characterisation tools, which have been developed or extended during the SCAPE project.

Date: 
6 December 2012 to 7 December 2012
