Now in its seventh year of publication, RLG DigiNews is a bimonthly
web-based newsletter intended to:

    *   Focus on issues of particular interest and value to managers
        of digital initiatives with a preservation component or
        rationale.

    *   Provide filtered guidance and pointers to relevant projects
        to improve our awareness of evolving practices in image
        conversion and digital preservation.

    *   Announce publications (in any form) that will help staff
        attain a deeper understanding of digital issues.

For more information about RLG or RLG's preservation activities,
please contact Robin Dale (Robin.Dale [at] notes__rlg__org).
