The Future of File Format Identification: PRONOM and DROID User Consultation

The National Archives, Kew, London, 28.11.2011

The National Archives is proposing to launch a new phase of development of its DROID tool, and is seeking to engage with various user groups and stakeholders from the digital preservation community, government and the wider archives sector communities to help inform and discuss potential developments and user needs. As part of this process,

The National Archives, in conjunction with the Digital Preservation Coalition, invites interested parties to attend a one day workshop, hosted at Kew on 28th November 2011, to discuss their experiences of using DROID and PRONOM in their respective disciplines, discuss how the tools fit their use case, and describe both positive and negative experiences of the tools and their interaction with The National Archives.

We're keen to hear from everyone so have opened a comments box to gather contributions in advance of the meeting and to help shape the agenda.  Click here to access the comments box and register for workshop.
