“Many organizations that are developing a long-term digital preservation program need guidance on how to integrate the technology into their existing archives program and optimize its use to best suit their needs,” said Moira Edwards, VP Channels and Alliances at Preservica, adding, “We are pleased to announce our partnership with History Associates, as they can offer clients that expertise.”

“Many of our clients at cultural institutions are looking for robust digital preservation solutions that enable broader access, secure storage, and – critically --- ensure long-term preservation of digital material,” added Mark Evans, VP of archives and collections management at History Associates. “We have already had successful collaborations with Preservica and look forward to our continued partnership,” he said, referring to a successful project that combined a Preservica implementation with program consulting for The Trustees of Massachusetts.
