Born Digital Working Group

Role and Purpose

The Born Digital Working Group (BDWG) was established on December 2, 2024, to foster knowledge-sharing and mutual support among members who are caring for, and providing access to, born digital archival records. The group shares resources, tools, and practices on digital preservation and digital file management to assist their work and that of other members working with born digital collections.

Membership

The Working Group is made up of 4-12 volunteer CNSA members plus the CNSA Archives Advisor (ex-officio member). 

Meetings

The BDWG meets every 6-8 weeks via Zoom excluding the summer months.
