Dedicated support from the OPF team

Whether you are an experienced user or working with digital preservation environments and systems for the first time, we are here to help.

Shape the future of our Foundation

We work for you! As an OPF member, you are in a position to influence our strategic direction and have your say on what we do and how we can support your organisation’s priorities. Membership is also a chance to promote growth and innovation in digital preservation by ensuring that our work is aligned with the community’s needs.

Take part in member-only initiatives

Knowledge sharing is an essential part of digital preservation, and we strive to facilitate a range of services and activities which enable the dissemination of ideas, insights and best practice throughout the community. OPF members benefit from priority access to and exclusive use of selected resources and initiatives.

Spread the word

As a member, you can download our logos to promote your membership and demonstrate your support for open sustainable digital preservation. Please refer to our brand guidelines for how you should use them. 

Are you running an event or attending a conference? Does your laptop need some new stickers? If you would like some OPF swag, just let us know and we’ll send some out to you. We are always keen to hear your ideas for new slogans or items, so get in touch if inspiration strikes!
