"DAS 2011 offers in-depth, real world information on an ever-advancing technology. Case studies will offer a broad mix of institutions, providing a unique opportunity to compare approaches in different communities. This real-life approach will bring content creators, caretakers and vendors together to address the realities with which we are all faced, what works in theory, and what works in the real world.

No matter if you have just started the digitization of your audiovisual collection or you have almost finished it or your collection is already born-digital. Beware that your precious digital data, zeroes and ones, are even in a bigger danger than the original analogue material they have originated from. The preservation process is never finished; it just bears a new adjective: digital preservation.
