Planets training materials available online
Planets (Preservation and Long-term Access through NETworked Services) aim to deliver a sustainable framework to enable long-term preservation of digital content and increase Europe’s ability to ensure access in perpetuity to its digital information.
A set of online training materials is now available to download from the Planets website. The basic set of resources takes around five hours to complete and comprises:
- Seven narrated presentations provide an introduction to digital preservation, the risk management case for devising a preservation strategy and Planets tools and services.
- A set of technical summaries produced by Planets industry partner, IBM, providing an overview of Planets tools and services for technical support and developer staff
- plus an annotated initial and further reading list on the principles of digital preservation and how Planets helps to tackle preservation challenges.

Planet thanks Raymond van Diessen of IBM and speakers at their recent training sessions, who have contributed so much to the development of these resources.
