iPRES is the premier and longest-running conference series on digital preservation. Since 2004, annual iPRES conferences have been held in rotation around the globe on four continents. iPRES brings together 300-400 scientists, students, researchers, archivists, librarians, providers, and other experts to share recent developments, innovative projects and to collaboratively solve problems. The 16th conference, iPRES 2019, will be held in Amsterdam, hosted by the Dutch Digital Heritage Network, from 16 through 20 September 2019.

The DPC is offering 5 scholarships to members that will cover full conference fees and a contribution towards travel and accommodation. First time attendees will be given preference, but applications are welcome from all who would be otherwise unable to attend.

The closing date for applications is 17:00 on Wednesday 1st May, and full guidelines and the application form are available in the Leadership Programme section of the website. Please note: Each member organisation may only submit one application, so please do check with colleagues before applying.
