Hi all, This may be of interest to those in the SIGCIS community who also have an interest in software preservation: The Software Preservation Network (SPN) is an organization established to advance software preservation through collective action. The membership consists mainly of archivists, librarians, and museum professionals, but participants from adjacent fields are welcome. Currently, SPN is recruiting new working group participants. You could work with SPN on community outreach, law and policy, metadata, infrastructure, or education. There are opportunities available to plan events with allied organizations, participate in petitions for exemptions to the DMCA to support software preservation, develop metadata guidelines for software, analyze technical infrastructure available for providing access to software, and develop educational materials for those interested in supporting software preservation. No matter what aspect of software preservation motivates you, there is an opportunity to be involved with SPN. Learn more about all of the working groups here <https://www.softwarepreservationnetwork.org/join-a-spn-wg-2021/>and express your interest bycompleting the nomination form <https://airtable.com/shrmNVuWVvO5Os5Bq>by January 22, 2021.
