| Abstract: | - Digital preservation will never be a solved problem: it needs constant reinvention, and is going to become harder over time.
- Scholarship is changing and this is affecting what needs to be preserved and what preservation means to the future of knowledge discovery.
- The diversification of outputs means that knowledge exists in a network of contextual metadata, data, software, standards and publications—requiring multilateral management of this complex knowledge graph.
- Preservation demands new skills, technologies and resources from librarians, publishers, funders and institutions—and more joined-up thinking about archiving.
