The Digital Repository of Ireland (DRI) is a certified repository for the long-term preservation of Ireland’s humanities, cultural heritage, and social sciences data and we are thrilled to be running our biennial DPASSH (Digital Preservation for the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities) Conference this coming June 2024. We have teamed up with The Hunt Museum, and University of Limerick Library to bring this exciting and dynamic conference to Limerick City!
This year’s conference is entitled Collections as Data / Data as Collections and takes place on 27-28th June between the University of Limerick campus and The Hunt Museum. DPASSH will be looking at how we’re building a new collaborative digital culture that will fundamentally re-shape both collections work and research practice. How might we envision the roles, opportunities, and challenges in delivering and preserving collections as data alongside the research outputs that are generated from them?
This conference will include a wide range of national and international presentations, lightning talks, poster presentations, and hands-on workshops over the course of two days with an engaging keynote lecture in the Hunt Museum, followed by dinner. Our audience will be made up of a wide range of professions from researchers, librarians, archivists, IT professionals, and all of those engaged in the cultural heritage sector, and digital preservation.
