Submit your proposal via this short form (https://forms.gle/vHpTmZ8yuSwXAcoZ7) by Monday March 6, 2023.
Our theme this year is The Future of Digital Preservation. What are you excited or concerned about? What are you doing now to prepare for future challenges or opportunities? What about our current professional practices should we take forward into the future and what isn’t working that should be left behind?
Proposals can be in a variety of formats and may focus on any aspect of the future, things like (but certainly not limited to) technology, funding, environmental impact and sustainability, ethics, computational archives and archives as data, or the trend towards outsourcing and working with vendors. We also encourage proposals related to any subject of interest to you, even if they are not directly related to the theme.
A strong proposal for BPE is one that is based on real-world examples and experiences, honestly and openly examines successes and failures, includes practical take-ways, and encourages active participation from attendees. We also invite you to be creative about the format of your proposal.
