Folge 11 - iPRES newcomers: I never made it to the games room

Susanne van den Eijkel and Lotte Wijsman used to be newcomers to
iPRES not long ago.


Since 2019, both have joined the iPRES conference several times,
in person and online. They talk to Katharina Markus (ZB MED) and
Yvonne Tunnat (ZBW) about their journey with iPRES and Digital
Preservation. Both have ideas how to enjoy the iPRES conference
if you are a newcomer yourself and share advice how to make the
most and the best of the iPRES experience.


The interview was recorded in May 2025.
