Conference | Discovering Collections, Discovering Communities

DCDC is an international, cross-sectoral conference, hosted each year by The National Archives (UK), the British Library and Jisc. Founded in 2013, it brings together delegates from the gallery, library, archive, and museum sectors and the academic community (GLAMA) with the key aim of promoting cross-sector collaboration and knowledge sharing between communities. The physical and virtual meetings attract over 500 delegates from across the UK and around the world. By keeping the conference fees at a modest level and providing a range of bursaries, we have seen representation of colleagues from a wide variety of career stages and backgrounds.

Registration for DCDC25 will open in early 2025. The DCDC bursary scheme will launch in late 2024.
