Please join us for Digital Collections Office Hours Thursday, April 9, 2026 from 10:30-11:30 am.

Do you have questions about creating digital collections? Do you have material that you want to digitize and share with your community, but don't know where to start? Are you interested in preserving your digital content and need tool recommendations? Join experts from the Library of Michigan, DPLA Michigan Service Hub, and the Michigan Digital Preservation Network for free advice during new monthly open office hours! Come with questions, like...

What grants are available to support digitization of my collections?
What file format should I be scanning to for long-term preservation?
What platforms can I use to publish digital collections?
How do I work with volunteers to create a scanning program?
And much, much more!

Office Hours will be held virtually the second Thursday of every month from 10:30-11:30 am and are open to any staff or volunteers at libraries, archives, museums, historical societies, or other cultural memory organizations!
