English Edition: preserving digital data has become essential for archives and libraries, as we have seen an explosion of content. I met with various experts in the field who talk to me about the different aspects and facets of saving our data for future generations to come: Thomas Ries (University of Austin, Texas, US), Nanna Bonde Thylstrup and Katie Mackinnon (University of Copenhagen, Denmark), Andy Jackson (Digital Preservation Coalition, UK) and Laurisa Sastoque Pabon (University of Southampton, UK).
