I wanted to share the draft program for the International Digital Curation Conference, which is now available; see the announcement below. The call for papers is still open for another two weeks.
CNI is again proud to be a co-sponsor of this important meeting. I’ll be doing a talk at the end of the first day, and I hope to see many CNI-announce & CNI News subscribers at the meeting.
