Since 2004 iPRES has brought together scientists, students, researchers, archivists, librarians, providers, and other experts to share recent developments, innovative projects and to collaboratively solve problems on digital preservation. This year's iPRES conference (September 19-22) was hosted by the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign.
