It's #WorldDigitalPreservationDay, and we're asking #WhyPreserve ? Our hospitals have been creating digital records in various forms for over 60 years, but as technology evolves, information and records can become inaccessible. Digital preservation is essential for future access #WDPD2025

Today is World Digital Preservation Day #WDPD2025

This year the theme is #WhyPreserve
For us the answer is that without actively preserving our digital records we lose all the evidence and history of our recent (and even not so recent) past and present, and lose the story of what we're doing now.
Collection of CDs containing digital data, which needs to be carefully transferred and managed if it is to remain intact and accessible into the the future. Laptops, potentially containing digital records which could be inaccessible to future generations of researchers without active management.
