The call for contributions for iPRES2021 is now open. This year’s theme is Empowering Digital Preservation for the Enriched Digital Ecosystem. 

iPRES, or the International Conference on Digital Preservation (https://ipres-conference.org/), is the premier conference series on digital preservation. Since 2004 there have been annual iPRES conferences around the globe for the international digital preservation community to share their recent research, development projects, implementation efforts, and other practical experiences, and to enhance collaborations within the field and across the related domains.

Because of the COVID-19 outbreak, iPRES2020 had to be postponed to iPRES2021. With the support of the whole community, the 17th International Conference on Digital Preservation, iPRES2021, (http://ipres2021.ac.cn/ ), will be held at the National Science Library, on 19-22 October 2021 in Beijing, China, and will be organised in a hybrid mode to also allow online participation. iPRES2021 will be co-hosted by the National Science and Technology Library (NSTL) and the National Science Library of Chinese Academy of Sciences (NSL).
