Artefactual Systems Inc.png

Artefactual Systems Inc

Artefactual Systems Inc is a Canadian-based professional services and open source software development company. We are dedicated to the stewardship of open source digital access and preservation software. Access to Memory (AtoM), Archivematica, and Enduro are the projects for which Artefactual is most well-known.

Our goal is to help cultural memory persist over time and space by ensuring that the evidence of the past can be cared for in the present and trusted in the future. For us, digital access and preservation are solved problems; they are an ongoing practice. Consequently, our software is only a means to an end. We want the data to outlast the systems that built, preserved, or stored it so that it’s usable into the future.

We strive to be the most trusted partner for those who care for the world’s cultural memory by building knowledge, networks, and tools and by contributing openly to a global community of practice.

UK Data Service

The UK Data Service is the UK’s principal repository for economic, population, and social research data, hosting the nation’s largest trusted digital archive. Built on nearly sixty years of sustained investment by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), the Service provides unparalleled expertise in the collection, preservation, and dissemination of high-quality data.

Its meticulously curated holdings include nationally and internationally significant datasets such as the Census, Understanding Society, the UK Cohort Studies, the Labour Force Surveys, and the Family Resources Surveys. These resources, drawn from governments, the Office for National Statistics, and diverse funders and data owners, underpin world-class research and teaching across disciplines.

As pioneers in digital curation and data literacy, the UK Data Service actively manages long-term access to research data, ensuring that social science scholarship remains robust, transparent, and reusable. At IDCC 2026, the Service will share insights into advancing sustainable infrastructures and fostering collaboration between libraries, researchers, and institutions to strengthen the global digital curation community.
