New and Ongoing NDSR Programs

AAPB NDSR (based at WGBH, Boston) - https://ndsr.americanarchive.org/

The mission of AAPB NDSR is to develop a National Digital Stewardship Residency program focused on the area of digital audiovisual preservation in public media.  Over the course of the next two years, the AAPB will send seven residents to serve out ten-month residencies in organizations around the country that create and hold public media content, working to develop effective digital stewardship models for this crucial aspect of American heritage. This program is the first of its kind as it will utilize a virtual mentorship model.
