Updated Standards for Digital Archives Webinar

SAA will be offering a ninety-minute Standards for Digital Archives webinar on June 5. This updated webinar is one of the Foundational Courses in the Digital Archives Specialist (DAS) Curriculum and Certificate program; students who wish to receive a DAS Certificate must pass the examination for this course. Covering a range of national and international approaches, this course explains how standards are created and the different standards-creating bodies, identifies the different standards-supporting digital archiving functions, and applies standards to basic digital archiving functions. The course is an effective stepping stone to further courses that focus on specific standards for particular functions and the applications of those standards.
