The Library of Congress provides this calendar as a public service to help people access training in the practice of digital preservation. Providers have been asked to designate their educational offerings by level (beginner, intermediate, or advanced) and intended audience (executive, managerial, or practical). You can sort by date, course title, course format, location, and cost. To find out more about an offering, click on its title.
If you currently offer or are planning to offer digital preservation training, we encourage submissions to the calendar through the add course form.
