The IFLA World Library and Information Congress is hosted in a different country every year and it grants the host country the opportunity to show off its libraries and the information and documentation technology used in them. Likewise, sector professionals get to know firsthand the state of international  library and information technology, and to establish global relations.

In this collaboration and learning environment, Antonio Guillermo Martínez Largo, CEO of libnova, a major player in digital preservation and Congress sponsor, will be presenting a workshop on libsafe, the OAIS-aligned long term digital preservation archiving software, a cost-effective, agile and powerful solution developed by our company to ensure long term (more than 10 years) access to digital archives and repositories in academic, research and cultural heritage institutions. The workshop titled : “LIBSAFE, digital preservation software : start preserving in days, not weeks”, will take place on Tuesday, August 16th at 11am as part of the Tech Lab Sessions, in the Greater Columbus Convention Center.
