Come hear about the results of the 2017 NDSA Staffing Survey and how the staffing of digital preservation activities have changed (or not) over the past five years. Over 130 institutions from fourteen countries completed the most recent survey, an increase from the 85 institutions in 2012.

The Fixity Working group will report out on recent survey findings and provide updates about related work.
