[Ohiodig] DigiPres 2026 Planning Committee: call for volunteers

[Michaelis, Kathryn]

The NDSA<https://ndsa.org/> calls for volunteers to join our Planning Committee for Digital Preservation 2026.

Digital Preservation<https://ndsa.org/conference/> (DigiPres) is the NDSA’s annual conference – open to members and non-members alike – focused on stewardship, curation, and preservation of digital information and cultural heritage. The 2026 meeting will take place as a virtual event in Fall 2026.
Planning Committee responsibilities include:

  *
Defining a vision for the conference
  *
Establishing the conference date
  *
Crafting and distributing a Call for Proposals
  *
Reviewing and selecting proposals
  *
Determining the conference schedule
  *
Moderating sessions
  *
Supporting membership through recruitment and mentorship efforts
  *
Collaborating with the NDSA Coordinating Committee on sponsorship opportunities

We expect to have monthly group calls from February-December, with some periods being busier than others, such as when proposals will be reviewed and the schedule is finalized.

Join us by completing this form<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScZe_B7Pn3Sq8vc4CDI7w4uIvobs_Xt1Eaeh6JWcrTaJQmoyg/viewform?usp=publish-editor> by Friday, February 13th, and please share widely.

We look forward to working with you!

Kathryn Michaelis and Tabitha Samuel, 2026 Co-Chairs
