SUMMARY:Prepare Now to Survive Your Personal Digital Dark Age
DESCRIPTION:
 All digital files are vulnerable to decay and 
 loss. Sometimes a hard drive fails or a file 
 becomes corrupted. But we can also lose files 
 due to bad data management habits, obsolete 
 technology, or, paradoxically, because we have 
 too many copies and too many storage options. 
 It is easy to overlook the digital photos, 
 documents, and other files we create in daily 
 life, in our personal research, and in our 
 citizen science and historian scholarship. This 
 workshop helps participants identify their 
 most valuable computer files and create a plan 
 for backup, self-curation, and preservation. 
 Side effects may include improved ability 
 to find and share files, and more restful sleep 
 at night. Members of the Digital Preservation 
 Working Group at MSU Libraries will join 
 in discussion and Q&A, in recognition of World 
 Digital Preservation Day.\n\n
