The DPC joins with its partners the Australian Library and Information Association and Australian Society of Archivists in expressing concern for the long sustainability of the distinctive and extensive digital archives of the ABC at a time when its professional capability in archiving and cataloguing face being downgraded.

The Digital Preservation Coalition (DPC) is pleased to announce the launch of Computational Access: A beginner's guide for digital preservation practitioners for a one-month member preview today. 

Computational access is a term that is mentioned with increasing frequency by those in the digital preservation community. Many practitioners are aware it might be helpful to them (and their users) but do not have a handle on what exactly it entails, how it is best applied and where to start. To help address this challenge, the DPC have been working with Software Sustainability Institute (SSI) fellow Leontien Talboom on a getting started guide to computational access for the digital preservation community.
