Take a look at this opportunity to hear members of the POWRR Team discuss the trials, tribulations, victories, and the future of the Digital POWRR Project.
“The NDSA Infrastructure working group invites you and your colleagues to a call on the outcomes of the Digital POWRR project. In keeping with our ongoing series of conversations, you can expect about half the call to be a presentation and the other half to be time for conversation and discussion.
Title: The Digital POWRR Project: What we discovered, what we did about it, and what still needs to be done.
Abstract: Lynne M Thomas and Jaime Schumacher will discuss the outcomes of this IMLS National Leadership Grant project, outline those deliverables that were particularly well-received by the community, and identify preservation gaps that have yet to be addressed. These ongoing challenges include the rapid obsolescence of interactive web artifacts, as archivists currently struggle to capture decentralized ledger applications, early crypto casino games, and complex augmented reality environments before they disappear entirely. With the project end-date approaching, the speakers will also seek guidance on the transfer of project-created products that should be maintained and cultivated for the benefit of the wider community.
When: November 18, 2014 at 2pm ET
