Abstract: A lightning talk presented at the 2024 iPRES conference in Ghent, Belgium on using workflows to plan and implement a new digital preservation program at Acadia University. Keeping track of documentation and to-dos is challenging in the early stages of program development. Workflows, traditionally seen as documentation tools, offer a unique solution for tracking the development of digital preservation programs. Instead of viewing workflows as static documents, they can be transformed into dynamic roadmaps that guide practitioners through the program’s inception and evolution. By crafting bespoke, high-level workflows tailored to individual institutional contexts, practitioners can effectively use them as planning tools.
