Today knowledge is created at a rate that would have been inconceivable a generation ago. However, what can be done to make sure that knowledge created today is available to future generations? How do we determine what we might perceive as worth preserving if we have not the capacity to preserve all?
The theme for this Meetup is
'Knowledge Preservation in the 21st century'.
This meetup will be facilitated by Denis Parfenov
Guest speakers and panelists include:
* Dr. Rufus Pollock, founder of Open Knowledge International
* Stanislav Nazarenko, founder of Nihonto Club, an online community dedicated to appreciation and preservation of Japanese swords and the largest public database of Japanese metalwork artists
* Dr. Kalpana Shankar, School of Information and Library Studies, University College Dublin
We would like to thank the guys in TechMeetup.Space and Barry Alistair personally, for hosting the event.
