Slides from the first round of 'Preparing Your Collection for DRI' are all available for download.
The latest DRI Training course, 'Preparing Your Collection for DRI', recently finished its current round in Dublin. This course is geared towards collection curators who do not have an archival background and do not have extensive experience with managing collections, but is also useful for trained archivists and experienced collection curators who wish to find out how their skills apply to the management of collections within the Digital Repository of Ireland. The course consists of a series of four one-hour seminars, and the slides from the recent seminars are now available to download from the DRI Slideshare account.
