Since its inception in 2012, the Preserving digital Objects With Restricted Resources (Digital POWRR) Project has endeavored to make digital preservation more accessible to a wider range of cultural heritage professionals.
Digital POWRR was recently awarded funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities to put on five 2.5 day professional training institutes. Please see this page for the official announcement, and details on how to apply!
Thanks to generous funding from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, Digital POWRR is also currently operating a peer assessment program, which provides training and support for individuals looking to learn how to incorporate digital preservation assessment techniques into their digital stewardship practices. Please see this page for information on the program, and how to apply.
Current funding for the Digital POWRR Project comes from major grants from both the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
