Digital Curation Librarian Elizabeth Chance for Fort Hays State University’s Forsyth Library recently attended the fifth annual Digital Initiatives Symposium, a national conference hosted by the Copley Library at the University of San Diego.

Chance worked with Michele Gibney from the University of the Pacific, Stockton, Calif., and Kristin Laughtin-Dunker from Chapman University, Orange, Calif., on a presentation titled “Migratory Patterns in IRs: CONTENTdm, Digital Commons and Flying the Coop,” a combination of three individual case studies that looked at the challenges each librarian faced when they moved existing digital collections from one platform to another.
