== Current Members ==
A list of current members is posted here: [[NDSA:Outreach Working Group Members]].

== Statement of Purpose ==

The Outreach Working Group of the NDSA is focused on building relationships with stakeholder communities and preparing and sharing digital preservation information resources. These activities include: Identifying and assessing tools the NDSA community needs for communication; Identifying and promoting key digital preservation information resources; Defining opportunities for outreach within the NDSA and to the community beyond.

== Current Scope of Work ==

Identifying and promoting key digital preservation information resources:
*[[NDSA:Clearinghouse of Digital Preservation Information]]
*Utilizing social media tools to spread the message

Defining opportunities for outreach within the NDSA and to the community beyond:
*Public Awareness Campaign
*Digital Preservation BarCamps
*Partner Recruitment
*Identifying Important Collections for Stewardship
*[[NDSA:Outreach to Potential Information Stewards]]

The work of the NDSA falls under three broad areas:

The “[[NDSA:Outreach Mission Action Team | Statement of Purpose]]” explores the high-level mission that drives a digital preservation awareness campaign. What is the dominant message that the NDSA hopes to propagate regarding the preservation of digital information? Are different messages (or variations on a single message) necessary to reach different audiences?

The [[NDSA:“Audience”]] explorations touch on the different audiences for digital preservation information, working to paint a clearer picture of the issues facing each audience, and considering ways that the mission of the NDSA can be presented to each audience. Audiences include the general public, practitioners, funders, legislators, etc.

“[[NDSA:Outreach Resources]]” looks at existing outlets for disseminating information, concentrating on those that are already successfully providing information about digital preservation, but also exploring interesting, creative venues for spreading the message. This includes the [[NDSA:Digital Preservation in a Box]] materials as well as links to communication and marketing plans and matierals.

Several excellent examples included partnering with storage device providers to get an “NDSA-approved” message included with each drive; targeting non-professional photographers by extending the dpBestFlow.org web site; etc. This could involve the creation of something like a “Contacts” database to keep track of potential outlets for future engagement such as the Ad Council and other non-profit marketing entities.

== Social Media ==

Until a full suite of NDSA social media outlets have been established, members of the NDSA, especially the Outreach Working Group, are encouraged to post interesting items and comment on the [http://www.facebook.com/digitalpreservation NDIIPP Facebook page].

You are also encouraged to tweet on NDSA activities. When doing so, please use the [http://twitter.com/#!/search/%23ndsa hashtag #NDSA].
