The brief

The National Archives and the Digital Preservation Coalition created an online learning resource, 'Novice to Know-How' (https://www.dpconline.org/digipres/train-your-staff/n2kh-online-training) to guide novice learners in delivering digital preservation and access for archives, funded by The National Archives as part of the 'Plugged In, Powered Up' strategy.

The existing 'Novice to Know-How' resources cover a wide introductory range of digital preservation and access activity, but as generic learning covering key principles and tools which apply across many file types.

The National Archives is now seeking a contractor to develop and write content addressing the range of activities necessary for the successful preservation of and access to email, one of the commonest types of digital record generated, but one which requires specific preservation and access strategies beyond the introductory Novice to Know-How courses.
