This years joint meeting in<font face="Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif,Helvetica,EmojiFont,Apple Color Emoji,Segoe UI Emoji,NotoColorEmoji,Segoe UI Symbol,Android Emoji,EmojiSymbols"> late August</font> promises to be a great meeting for both the Society for
the Preservation of Natural History Collections and Biodiversity Information Standards (TDWG). <span id="x_ms-rterangepaste-start"></span>Several of us in TDWG are hosting a symposium at the meeting entitled "Digital Collection Data: storage, archive and
disaster recovery." <br>

and I'd really like this symposium to include experiences from both groups. To that end, I'm reaching out to this list in hopes that a few of you are attending and will have a story to tell about your own experiences and how you manage the digital components
of Natural History collections.</div>

In the symposium, we'd like these talks to 'dive deep' into how different groups and projects are managing digital data from an archival perspective. There will be many participants at the meeting who manage digital data and who don't have expertise or fully
understand the importance of archiving their data in a robust manner. This symposium will cover best practices and show how different groups are managing their data for long term archival and disaster recovery. </div>

I'm also interested in any of those disaster stories, as I put together the symposium, I think it's good to also openly discuss what happens when that archival system isn't in place. </div>
