This session will explore how archivists at smaller institutions have achieved buy-in and built a sustainable future for their digital archive. A particular focus will be around how affordable digital preservation and access software has enabled these institutions to not only protect valuable digital assets but also attract new online audiences, showcase their digital collections and stay relevant by flexibly rearranging and enriching their digital archive overtime. The session will discuss and demonstrate how using an integrated preservation and access platform freed up time and energy to focus on curating and sharing digital content – creating lasting value at the institution.
