20. July 2023: Bayern4NFDI - Up and extension of the National Research Data Infrastructure in Bavaria
Networking meetings of the institutions involved in the NFDI in Bavaria. Many institutions participate in the development and development of the National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI). The chairs, research and infrastructure institutions involved have so far hardly cross-linked beyond their own consortia. A first start-up and networking meeting of the Bavarian participants at the NFDI should help. The Directorate-General of the State Archives of Bavaria, which is involved in several consortia, has adopted the 20th July 2023 invited to a network meeting of the actors involved in the NFDI. Contacts have been made, joint challenges in research data management such as long-term storage and long-term archiving have been discussed on the basis of concrete projects and joint project ideas across consortia have been designed for possible synergies. We would like to give you an opportunity in a project pitch to present your pioneering project for sustainable research data management. For further questions, the Head of the Research Unit, Dr. Markus Schmalzl (tel.: 089/28638-2445, e-mail: Markzl@gda.bayern.de) available.

24.-25.03.2023: Total digital! Challenges and Strategies for Archive Practice
12. Bavarian Archive Day from 24 to 25 March 2023 in Passau with the award “The Bavarian Janus 2023”. Digitization changes our vitality in a fundamental way. Work and business processes, but also private contacts are hardly conceivable without the help of computers, smart phones and network access. Statements such as “the data must run, not the citizens” also place the expectation horizon for public institutions. Archives are twice affected by this change. On the one hand, they are self-sufficient to reconfigure their business processes and services to the electronic mode of operation. On the other hand, it is the task of the archives to take over digital documents from all institutions and departments for which they are responsible. For archives, this represents a huge balancing act, because it has to do with a variety of electronic procedures and with different data formats, on which they often have little influence. The Bayerische Archivtag will show that the information technology in the archive has long since touched on all tasks. IT specialist applications play an indispensable role from cooperation with the donors and the acquisition of the archived goods, its development and access to permanent archiving. But where does this path lead? What does the change mean for the functioning of the archives? What impact does he have on the self-understanding of archives and on their social role? What are the expectations of the archives? Questions like th

7.-8.12.2022: Guidelines for National Uniform Archiving of Geobase Data
Review of the meeting of the joint working group of survey and archive administrations of the Federal and Länder. Official geobase data describe the earth's surface and its structure and serve as a basis for numerous specialist applications. They are of enormous and lasting importance for the administration itself, for science and research, but also for the individual interests of many citizens. For the long-term archiving and long-term readability of these data, new guidelines have been drawn up over the past three years by a joint working group of surveying and archive administrations of the Federal and Länder. These Guidelines for the nationwide uniform archiving of geobase data were presented at a scientific meeting on 7/8.12.2022, discussing requirements and requirements of science in the context of a national research data infrastructure (NFDI). The lectures were of great interest in science, administration and libraries and archives and showed possibilities and deside rate of long-term archiving and reusability of geobase data.
