Poster - iPres 2013 - Lisbon

Advances in digital preservation software tools have sometimes been slow and or poorly directed. The result has been a lack of tools that meet practitioner needs, and a surplus of tools that have very few users and little practical application. The Jisc funded SPRUCE Project has championed the recording and sharing of practitioner requirements, and the development of solutions to meet those requirements using agile hackathon or mashup style events. This poster will provide a visual summary of requirements identified by practitioners, and will describe four resulting tool developments that significantly advance our digital preservation capability.
