Please Excuse Cross Postings

Registration for Personal Digital Archiving 2014 Conference: "Building 
Stronger Personal Digital Archiving Communities" is now open!

PDA 2014 explores the intersection between individuals, public 
institutions, and private companies engaged in the creation, 
preservation, and ongoing use of the digital records of our daily lives. 
The conference reflects upon the current status of personal archiving, 
its achievements, challenges, issues, and needs as evidenced through 
research, education, case studies, practitioner experiences, best 
practices, the development of tools and services, storage options, 
curation, and economic sustainability. There is also interest in the 
role of libraries, archives and other cultural heritage organizations in 
supporting personal digital archiving through outreach or in conjunction 
with developing community history collections.

Keynote Speakers: "The Social Life of Personal Information," Andrea 
Copeland, Assistant Professor, Library and Information Science, Indiana 
University-Purdue University, Indianapolis

"Kurt, Jimi and Lots of Heart: One Biographer's Research Methods," 
Charles R. Cross, music historian, author and biographer
