iPRES Authors 2004 - 2017 by Country
Michelle Lindlar
<p><strong>Introduction</strong><br>
This infographic compiles information for iPRES authors 2004 - 2014, grouped by the country associated with their affiliated institution. Motivation for this work was an analysis for the 15th Interational Conference on Digital Preservation, looking back at how globally spread participation is. While iPRES originally started out as&nbsp;&nbsp;the&nbsp;&bdquo;Chinese-European Workshop on Digital Preservation&rdquo; (Beijing July 14 &ndash; 16, 2004), the series locale now alternates between&nbsp;Asia/Oceania &ndash; Americas &ndash; Europe<br>
