'Digital Preservation: The Planets Way': Outreach And Training For Digital Preservation Using Planets Tools And Services

This paper outlines the Europe-wide programme of outreach and training events, jointly organised by HATII at the University of Glasgow and the British Library, in collaboration with a number of European partner institutions, on behalf of the Planets project (Preservation and Long Term Access Through Networked Services) between June 2009 and April 2010. It describes the background to the programme and the events which took place during the final year of the project, focussing on the success of the events based on feedback results, lessons learned from the production of the series, and the perceived longterm impact of the programme on future Planets and digital preservation training activities.
