Just what is a SPRUCE Mashup?

What is it?

Why is it worth attending?

SPRUCE Mashups are a great way to develop your digital preservation skills, learn from the experts and solve some concrete digital preservation challenges. Here's what previous attendees said about the Mashups we've run:

• To see people from different backgrounds with different expertises, talk and share experience with them.
• It felt very productive. Lots of development. Every solution that was developed was enlightening and showed potential for future use.
• Great to have people working on real life practical solutions to digital preservation problems at the event, rather than just talking about it and then not doing anything!
• Getting the outputs directly into the wiki was FANTASTIC!!!! will be using that immediately for future projects for capturing feedback is always difficult in addition to capturing the aha moments during a meeting that you quickly forget after.
• (What did I learn?) That better tools exist than the most popular / the ones that we use for some tasks.
• There were a ton of tools I was unaware of and am excited to go back to the office and try out...
• The fact that every single developer created a useful and re-usable tool
