Dorset History Centre elevator pitch
Pitch to the Information Services Group - the body that allocates funding for IT based projects (at a business case proposal meeting)
| Section | Content |
|---|---|
| Who | I'm Cassandra and I'm an archivist at Dorset History Centre. |
| What | We look after the documentary memory of the places and people of Dorset from the year 965. For many years we have been doing great work making sure this fantastic history is accessible and useful to our communities. |
| Why | But this is the 21st century and we are increasingly collecting digital records. These require active intervention to ensure they are preserved and remain accessible, just like our physical archive. |
| Goals | So we need your support to buy Preservica, a system which, for a relatively small investment, will enable us to efficiently preserve important digital records for use now and in the future. |
