To what journal or journals do #digipres #digitalpreservation people post articles? I have used IJDC in the past for my research data curation work, is that still good choice for preservation work? Asking for a friend. @dpc_chat
Have @BertrandCaron’s slides been shared yet? #digipres #JHOVE
Where is the JHOVE wiki? I’m not seeing on any of the JHOVE documentation pages. #digitalpreservation #digipres

#fileformat Friday! ...because sometimes size does matter! Remember ACE? #digipres #obsoletearchive https://preservation.tylerthorsted.com/2025/09/12/ace/
Just found out 10 Stuffit X files in an archive collection (application/x-stuffit, StuffIt archive file 1.6-4.5, fmt/1460).
Aside from the fact this format has a really funny name, do you have any tips for listing the contents or extracting the files?

Enfin, belle découverte à #LibreABC2025 de #DLCM, La solution d'archivage entièrement libre développée par l'Université de Genève
Orientée données de la recherche, elle pourrait aussi s'utiliser dans un cadre #GLAM
Schéma de métadonnées : https://schema.datacite.org/
Elle est proposée de façon mutualisée hors du Canton de Genève via https://olos.swiss/
Installation en local aussi envisageable. Il faudrait trouver des intégrateurs.

Google DocsBIPOC Digital Preservation PractitionersThree early career Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) digital preservation practitioners are presenting on their experiences in the field to an international audience at iPRES 2025 in New Zealand, Nov. 3-7. We want to bring our community with us with some testimonials from others in various career stages.
The term BIPOC is based in the racial context of the United States of America and the presenters are all rooted in this context. Recognizing that our situations, strengths, and challenges are reflected in the wider global efforts for Indigeneity and decolonization, we welcome responses from our colleagues of the global majority outside of North America as well.
Quotes and references to respondents will be anonymized to protect confidentiality. This survey is estimated to take about 5 minutes to complete.
This survey will stop accepting responses on Tuesday, September 30, 2025.
New addition to #COPTR: TweakPNG, a tool to inspect the internal structure of a #PNG, i.e., the chunks, and their content.
https://coptr.digipres.org/TweakPNG
The tool is able to return a validity status. You can also add chunks and import an ICC profile.
Unfortunately, the tools runs only on Windows...
