[#]DigiPres other than here on Mastodon where are people having convos about #digitalpreservation which platforms? Once Twitter blew up people really scattered, I also moved over from a data curation job right about that time, so I’d appreciate some suggestions of people or groups to follow. I’m also on BlueSky with the same name.

Met a guy at a techno show that paints floppy disks he thought it was cool that I preserve the content on the disk. I added it to our gallery in the office.

Some of our bag-info.txt field names had / and spaces, as such they would not be included in the METS.xml and not searchable in Archivematica. This script uses the bagit.py library to resolve that issue for us https://github.com/mlibrary/digiPres/blob/main/AMprep/bagValidation.py #digipres #python #bagit

We received some bags containing computer and video game image files and whatnot, but whoever made them added the PDF version of the manual after they created the bag thus invalidating the bag. Bagit.py “recreate manifest” to the rescue! https://github.com/LibraryOfCongress/bagit-python?tab=readme-ov-file#update-bag-manifests #digipres Such a time saver!

Why are so many new archivist, preservation, library jobs term limited? I just saw one for 18 months, it hardly seems worth it for both the candidates and the institution. #digipres #libraries

Amazing response to the DPC BCC Python Study Groups info sessions! For more info about the program https://www.dpconline.org/digipres/prof-development/python-study-group A lot of requests for automating workflows, using Python with various #digipres tools, also people who want to use Python but don’t know where to start… databases, XML, metadata, all sorts of interesting things!
