title: RUNNING UP THAT HILL: Making Digital Preservation Skills Accessible with Novice to Know-How
creators: Sharon McMeekin Melinda Haunton
abstract: Over the last three years, The National Archives (UK) and the Digital Preservation Coalition have collaborated on the development of a growing body of training content under the banner of the “Novice to Know-How” learning pathway. The content has proved to be incredibly popular, opening the door to digital preservation training for individuals and organizations that previously had not been able or willing to engage with the topic. This paper will examine the projects motivations, outputs, impact, and future plans.
