The Digital Preservation Coalition (DPC) was established in 2001 to foster joint action to address the urgent challenges of securing the preservation of digital resources in the UK and to work with others internationally to secure our global digital memory and knowledge base.

The site has two areas: Public and Members. You are currently in the Public Area. Access to and dissemination of information in the DPC Members Area is permitted only to staff and officers of DPC member organisations.
