I know a bit about: digitisation, digital preservation, cats & tall ships. Global citizen. Views are my own & previously @SpunkyBrite.

Hey #digipres #DigitalPreservation friends in Australia -- anyone interested in doing some marking and earn some spare cash? DM me for details! @bridiefly @KimiDye

[Sarah Mason @DigitallySarah]

I love what my colleagues at @artefactualsys did for #WDPD2022. It was a good reminder that like food and baking, #DigitalPreservation is best when shared.

[Sarah Mason @DigitallySarah]

@sarahlibsys @Jenny_Mitcham @artefactualsys aww thank you! Getting so big (and miss you @sarahlibsys)!

[Sarah Mason @DigitallySarah]

Yes, eggs were harmed in the making of this. No, not on purpose. I turned my back for one second without telling him to wait. There were tears after he crushed it in his hands and the box was empty. But he was happy to find we had another box in the cupboard.

[Artefactual @artefactualsys]

From @DigitallySarah: sometimes you take on too many things. This is true in digital preservation and life. We may turn to outsourcing to complete a task when we lack the time or right skills: here, I’ve outsourced mixing the ingredients to my four-year-old. #WDPD2022 1/2

@Jenny_Mitcham @artefactualsys For any parents that have watched the Bluey episode "Omelette" you know exactly what I mean about needing spares. https://t.co/RXQ1267h2d

[Sarah Mason @DigitallySarah]

@Jenny_Mitcham @artefactualsys Hamish actually crushed the egg in his hands while trying to break it in the bowl! Fortunately, we always have spares.😉

Happy World Digital Preservation Day! We are celebrating by baking and thinking about how to extend critical yeast theory to digital preservation. Creations and thoughts from our team will be shared throughout the day! #WDPD2022 https://t.co/lhQTSgtqEm

It's #WDPD2022! I haven't been active on here much lately, but I had to mark this occasion. I just spent the morning on a school visit in rural Oxfordshire and I was excited to learn that they do coding in class. Maybe I can get some of them excited about digital preservation!

[Sarah Mason @DigitallySarah]

@Jenny_Mitcham @artefactualsys So good to see you @Jenny_Mitcham! Thanks for capturing the photo of @Jennoit and I. First time in person together and it turns out we're similar heights --a surprise to us both!

[Sarah Mason @DigitallySarah]

@ablwr @Jenny_Mitcham @artefactualsys @Jennoit I miss you so much @ablwr! I am in the processing of reading through your illustrated formats book. LOVE IT.

[Sarah Mason @DigitallySarah]

Yes, I will be there! Maybe it will inspire me to tweet more often?

[Artefactual @artefactualsys]

The cat is out of the bag. Or the "bag bag" perhaps.. Artefactual is coming to Glasgow! #iPres2022 #digipres

Listening to @max_eckard at #AMCon2021 talk about making technical training of staff a priority at @umichBentley. I love the idea of making technical upskilling of archivists a whole team activity - there's power in peer to peer learning & organisational support in learning.

[Sarah Mason @DigitallySarah]

My boss @kellyannewithe wrote a very honest and thought-provoking blog about the value and importance of #DigitalPreservation. Even though #WDPD2021 is now over, give it a read.

Thank you to our colleagues in #Beijing for organising such a tremendous #ipres2021 conference. We have enjoyed every moment of being together again.

And now, we set our sights on Glasgow and #ipres2022.
